Rating Definition:

Very fine. The rifle retains 75% plus of the original blue finish with some areas cleaned to partially bright, brown patina on some of the exposed surfaces, and spotting on the right side of the frame. The wood is fine with some minor dings and scratches and otherwise primarily smooth glossy surfaces. Mechanically excellent with crisp markings.
