Very good with 80% original brown finish on the barrel, some patches of gray patina, light refinished case colors on the lock plate assembly, bright silver, aged patina on the German silver, smooth varnished finish and attractive figure on the stock, and minor age and storage related marks and discoloration. Mechanically excellent. The scope is very good with clear optics but no visible reticle. The case and other accessories are fine with storage wear.
