Fine. The barrel and receiver retain 60% plus original blue finish with some smooth plum patina on the underside of the receiver and forward portion of the barrel, as well as some edge wear and minor spotting. The magazine tube, slide bar, buttplate, tangs and trigger guard retain 95% original nickel finish with most areas beginning to frost. Most of the original gold finish remains on the remaining parts showing some normal usage and edge wear. The wood is also fine with most of the crazed original varnish remaining, and showing some minor dents and dings. The markings are crisp and clear. The action is excellent. A very rare special order Deluxe Model 90 with gold and nickel trim.
