Very good as factory rebarreled, the barrel retains 70% faded factory blue finish with high edge wear, scattered minor scratches and patches of minor pitting. The remaining blue components retain half of their original blue finish with a mostly smooth brown patina. The casehardened components have a mostly smooth silvery gray patina. The wood is very good as refinished with some scattered minor scratches and dings. Mechanically excellent.
