Rating Definition:

Very good plus. The barrels retain 40% original brown finish with some minor oxidation. The frame retains 30% of the somewhat darkened original case colors. The break lever and trigger guard have a smooth dark brown patina. The wood is also good with a moderate chip on the upper left front of the forearm, and overall some scattered minor dings, dents and scratches. The checkering is crisp. The markings are clear. Mechanically fine.
