Rating Definition:

Very fine as cleaned and partially refinished (barrels and stock). The barrels have 95% of the blue finish with mostly light handling marks. The receiver has been cleaned and polished bright with faint traces of original case colors in protected areas and the interior. The markings, proofs and engravings are quite clear. The wood is very fine with a non-matching serial number on the forearm hardware, sharp checkering, rich color and scattered small handling marks. Mechanically excellent.
