Rating Definition:

Good as refinished with 85% of the blue remaining on the barrels, some areas of mild pitting, light markings, and some small nicks and scratches. The receiver and locks have a mostly gray patina with traces of original muted case colors, light spotting, and handling marks. The refinished wood is about good with rounded contours, some small cracks behind the locks, numerous dings, and a chip above the right lock. Mechanically very good.
