Rating Definition:

Good. The barrels have a gray patina with most of the Damascus pattern remaining. The locks show strong 20% original bright case colors in protected areas and there is strong bright original case colors on the underside of the receiver. The trigger guard retains strong original blue finish with smooth gray patina on the balance. The wood is very good. The forend insert is absent, otherwise overall there are some minor dings and scratches, and crisp checkering. The firing pins stick in the forward position, otherwise the mechanics are fine. The engraving and markings are clear.
