Very fine as refurbished with 95% of the brown finish remaining on the barrels with some pitting visible under the forend and a small dovetailed filler on the rib. The action, locks, and underlever retain 90% of the bright casehardened finish with clear engraving. The forend shoe and lever shows some visible pitting. The wood is very fine with only minor handling marks. Mechanically excellent.
