Rating Definition:

Fine, with 75% of the original phosphate finish, showing areas of brown patina and surface rust, with mild wear and scattered handling marks. The stock is very good, with cracking at the wrist, scattered dents and mild scuffs. The scope body shows mild oxidization, with the optics in good order. Mechanically excellent.
