Rating Definition:

Fine as refinished with 65% of the blue finish on the barrels. Showing areas of edge wear, thinning and gray patina on the rib and small scattered nicks and dings. The action has aged to a mostly gray patina with detailed engravings. The wood has small indentations and handling marks throughout, smoothed checkering on the forearm, a chip at the buttplate toe and some deeper indentations on the buttstock near the trap. Mechanically very good.
