Rating Definition:

Very good as refinished. The rifle retains 60% of the blue finish with the balance a smooth brown patina. There is some very scattered minor pitting. The receiver has a smooth gray patina. The wood is very fine with some minor pressure dents and scratches and some blemishes in the overall crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent.
