Rating Definition:

Fine. The barrels have an overall gray patina with visible Damascus pattern, light markings, spotting, and light pitting throughout. The receiver is a silver gray overall with well defined, deep engraving, small handling marks and some darker spotting. The wood is good with a small repair visible at the toe, dings and pressure marks throughout, and well defined though worn checkering. Mechanically very good.
