Rating Definition:

Excellent plus, with 98% plus original finish, showing some bright wear on the high edges, a small bright spot on the upper right side of the front receiver ring, and a few mild handling marks overall. The stock is in equal condition, with some light dents, the sling is supple with a few small stains, and the bayonet is excellent with light wear on the sheath. Mechanically excellent.
