Fine. The rifle retains 70% plus original blue finish with some muzzle and edge wear, thinning on the receiver with some brown patina on the receiver, a number of minor scratches on the receiver and some minor spotting. Most of the original case colors remain on the hammer and lever. 50% of the original niter blue finish remains on the loading gate. The buttplate has a smooth mottled gray patina. The wood is also fine with some scattered minor dent, dings and scratches. The markings are crisp and clear. The action is excellent.
