Rating Definition:

Very fine with 95% plus original blue and niter blue finish, minor fading at the edges and grip straps, light marks and scratches, and slight spotting. The grips are also very fine and have attractive aged tones, light handling and storage wear, and crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent. The updated box is good and has moderate storage wear including some small tears.
