Rating Definition:

Very good as refinished overall with most of the blue on the barrels. Displaying mild surface pitting throughout under the blue, light handling marks, and traces of edge wear at the breech. The receiver has a cleaned silver/gray patina with clear markings and engraving. The refinished wood is very good with handling marks, well-defined checkering, and some small dings. The buttplate is a replacement that lacks the point at the top and has a piece of triangular gutta percha inletted in its place. Mechanically excellent.
