Professionally refinished (barrels), the barrels retain 98% plus of the high quality blue finish with some minor forearm wear and some faint barrel markings. The chokes have been opened up to cylinder. The French gray components retain nearly all of the original finish with areas of brown patina. The wood is very good with some scattered minor scratches, a very small tight hairline crack at the lower right side of the wrist and some minor dings along with a an added recoil pad. Mechanically excellent.
