Rating Definition:

Very fine with 95% plus of the period custom refinished blue on the barrel, 70% plus original case colors, a few minor scratches, and general handling and storage marks. The wood has crisp checkering, some small scratches, and minor edge wear. Mechanically excellent. The scope is a little foggy but has the crosshairs. The exterior of the tube is very fine with most of the blue.
