Rating Definition:

Very good as professionally refinished, with 95% of the blue finish on the barrels and 95% of the vibrant case colors on the frame with small dings on the rib, very small spots of light pitting that have been cleaned and reblued and soft edges on the rib. The frame is vibrantly case colored with some small areas of engraved border lines buffed out, soft edges and light water table markings. The wood is very good as shortened with scattered small scratches, general handling marks and nice grain. Mechanically very good.
