Rating Definition:

Very good with period shortened barrel. The shotgun has a mixture of smooth brown and gray patinas with the barrel retaining most of the Damascus pattern and traces of original blue finish in the protected areas and the receiver and lever retaining areas of mostly silvered out case colors. The wood is fine showing some minor dings and scratches.
