Condition: Very fine. The rifle retains 85% original blue finish with some thinning, light scratches and a few small areas of very minor pitting on the barrel and magazine. The receiver shows a number of minor scratches, thinning on the bottom and high edge wear. The lever has a smooth mottled gray patina and the buttplate has a smooth silver gray. The wood is good with most of the original varnish remaining with overall scattered minor scratches, dings and dents. The checkering on the forearm is heavily worn and the checkering on the wrist remains somewhat crisp. The markings are crisp and clear. Mechanically excellent.
