Rating Definition:

Fine, retaining 80% original blue finish with the balance thinning to a brown. 30% of the original nitre blue remains on the loading gate. There is some cold blue touch up over light pitting visible on barrel midway between forend cap and muzzle. 60% original case colors remain on the hammer and lever. There is a small chip on the buttplate at the toe. The wood is fine with minor dings and scratches and recut checkering. Mechanically excellent.
