Very good, retaining 30% original thinning blue finish turned to a brown patina with heavy spotting. The case colors have faded to a dark gray and brown patina. Stock is fine with recently applied checkering, some dents and scratches, some finish fading, and a small chip on the front of the wood grip insert. Extra barrels are good with 70% original blue finish, spotting and some mild wear. Mechanically excellent.
