Very good. The rifle retains approximately 75% original blue finish with the balance a smooth brown patina with some minor spotting. The trigger guard, rear barrel band and buttplate have a smooth brown patina, with some minor pitting on the buttplate. The cleaning rod is missing. The wood is very good with the forearm having been repaired near the lower tang with the front piece loose, a hairline crack on the handguard and a minor gash near the upper tang, along with some minor dings and scratches. The SA stock markings are clear and crisp.
