Rating Definition:

Very good. The barrel has a smooth blue/brown finish with half of the blue finish remaining. There is some minor flash pitting on the breech plug. The lock plate has a smooth gray patina and the brass mountings have an aged patina. The stock is fine with a small nick on the front of the comb, and there are a few minor dents and handling marks. The markings, except noted above, and engraving are clear. Mechanically fine.
