Very fine with 99% professionally refinished blue, possibly by the factory, and a few light handling marks on the barrels with bores modified as described. The receiver and locks have 50% original muted case colors with crisp detailed engraving, some wear on the trigger guard tang, and an attractive gray patina on the balance. The refinished wood is very fine with attractive dark figure, crisp freshened checkering, and freshened oil finish. Mechanically excellent.
