Rating Definition:

Very good as professionally refinished (barrels) showing 85% of the current blue with some light handling marks overall, a few patches of shallow pitting, and mild dings on the exterior. The frame has strong color present in the protected areas with a mixed silver and gray patina on the remainder, solid traces of the original pattern, and a few light scratches on the trigger guard. The stock is good with some light dents and scuffs overall and an unknown residue on the buttstock. The cocking indicator pins do not raise when the breech is opened, otherwise mechanically very good.
