Rating Definition:

Fine. 70% original blue finish remains with some edge wear, light nicks and surface scratches, and clear markings. The receiver and locks have a mostly gray patina with traces of original muted case colors, some small nicks and scratches, and traces of light spotting. The wood is also fine with well-defined, mildly worn checkering, numerous small dings, and added recoil pad. Mechanically excellent.
