Very good. The barrels have 95% plus original blue finish with clear rib markings, light handling marks, and light muzzle wear. The receiver has 60% original muted case colors with the balance aged to a mottled brown/gray patina. Showing handling marks, edge wear, and a mostly smooth gray patina on the tangs. The wood is very fine with well defined checkering, light handling marks, and scattered small dings. Mechanically excellent.
