Rating Definition:

Fine. 95% of the professionally refinished blue remains on the barrels with an area of subsequently applied cold blue near the muzzle of the left barrel, light breech engraving, and some small surface scratches. The receiver has most of the vibrant case colors with sharp recut engraving and areas of visible oxidation on the upper tang. The wood has been refinished, recut checkering, and hairline stress lines in the varnish throughout. Mechanically excellent.
