Rating Definition:

Good as partially refinished with 95% of the original blue on the barrels and some small areas of pitting that have been cleaned and touched-up, light surface scratches and edge wear at the muzzle. The receiver has traces of muted case colors with the majority having aged to a uniform silver with small traces of oxidation. The wood is good with fine figuring and scattered light handling marks and indentations and some oxidation. The replacement recoil pad is slightly oversized. Mechanically excellent.
