Rating Definition:

Fine as professionally restored with 85% of the thinning brown finish on the barrels, some visible Damascus pattern on the shotgun barrel, and small surface scratches. The receiver and lock plates have some minor surface pitting, vibrant case colors, and some minor edge wear. The forend has a hairline crack from the lever to the rear fitting; otherwise, the wood is fine with crisp checkering and some small dings. Mechanically excellent.
