Rating Definition:

Very good. 90% of the refinished blue finish remains on the barrels with some cleaned pitting under the blue, under the forearm, strong barrel markings, small scratches, and light edge wear. The receiver has retains half of the refurbished case colors with some light surface pitting, handling marks overall, and a mottled gray patina on the balance. The refinished replacement wood is fine with well defined recut checkering, some slight gaps around the tangs, attractive color and figure, and small dings. The beavertail forearm is a later addition. Mechanically excellent.
