Rating Definition:

Very fine. The barrels retain 97% refinished blue showing scattered handling marks and some muzzle wear. The action has faded to a gray. The engraving is crisp. The wood is fine with a couple short hairline stress cracks near the action, some minor handling marks and some blemishes in the checkering. Mechanically excellent.
