Rating Definition:

Very fine, retaining 98% original blue on the barrels, 90% plus original case colors on the receiver with the balance a nice silver coloration, and light overall handling evidence on the metal. The wood is also very fine with a few nicks and scratches, a slight chip at the lower tang, and crisp checkering. The boxes are very good showing some wear. Mechanically excellent.
