Rating Definition:

Fine. 98% blue finish remains on the barrels with some scattered light surface scratches and some slight edge wear. The refinished forend iron has a deep blue finish with polished pits on the underside, and wear on the shoe, diamond, and forend tip turning mostly to plum. The receiver has faded original case colors with the balance a smooth gray patina with light spotting. The action plate and trigger guard have the same deep blue refinish with some polished pitting. The wood is fine with crisp checkering, and a few scattered dings and bruises. Mechanically excellent.
