Very good with 90% original finish with the remainder aging to a dark gray. The casehardened receiver has aged to a satin or pewter gray. The stock is very good as freshened, with well defined yet smooth checkering on the grip. Several cracks are present on the buttplate, which also has a small section missing. Mechanically excellent.
