Fine with 95% professionally refinished blue on the barrels, some faint traces of surface pitting under the blue on the underside, light edge wear, small nicks, and well defined engraving. The receiver has 75% original case colors under a protective coat of yellowing varnish, areas of a mixed brown/gray patina, and some light spotting. The toe of the buttstock has been broken and reglued. Otherwise the refinished wood is fine with crisp, freshened checkering, small scattered dings, and attractive grain and color. Mechanically excellent.
