Rating Definition:

Fine as refinished with 60% of the blue remaining. Showing areas of mottled gray patina on the barrels, light edge and high point wear, some light spotting and general handling marks. The action and lock plates have aged to a mostly gray patina with some light spotting and handling marks. The wood is very good as refreshed with well defined checkering, scattered small indentations, and a chip on the buttplate toe. Mechanically very good.
