Rating Definition:

Excellent, retaining 98% plus original blue on the barrels, 50% original case colors with the balance a silver patina, 90% blue on the trigger guard, and strong traces of case colors on the forearm fittings. The metal has minor handling evidence. The wood has two tiny cracks at the rear of the forearm and a tiny crack near the lower tang screw, otherwise the wood is very fine with minor marks and sharp checkering. Mechanically excellent.
