Very fine as professionally restored, possibly by the factory. The barrels have 99% high quality refinished blue with slightly light markings and just a few small handling marks. The receiver and locks have 80% vibrant case colors, crisp engraving, and an attractive gray patina on the balance. The wood is also very fine with sharp, freshened checkering, and just a few very small dings. Mechanically excellent. The case is fine with scuffs and scratches.
