Rating Definition:

Very good, retaining 90% original blue finish on the barrels and traces on the trigger guard, 60% case colors with the balance an attractive silver patina, scattered light spotting, and mild handling evidence. The wood is also very good with some chipping around the inlets, hairline crack at the back of both lock plates and the left side of the forend at the shoe, numerous scratches, and crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent.
