Professionally refinished, the sleeved barrels retain 99% of the high quality blue finish with a couple small dings and light scratches. The casehardened components retain 95% of the bright case colors with most of the wear on the forearm hardware. The rib marking has been re-rolled with traces of the original markings visible. The replacement wood is very good with some scattered minor handling marks. Mechanically fine.
