Rating Definition:

Very fine as custom engraved and refinished. 98% blue on the barrels with some light forearm marks and some small handling marks. The receiver has 95% dark case colors with sharp, detailed engraving. The wood is also very fine with rich color, crisp checkering, and some small dings. Mechanically excellent.
