Rating Definition:

Very good, with 70% plus original blue finish, showing the start of a brown patina near the breech, along with some mild handling marks and edge wear. Over half of the bright original case colors are present on the frame, with some fading near the front and on the tangs. The stock is very good, with light dings and scuffs. Mechanically very good.
