Fine, the barrels retain 90% plus of the original blue finish with some high edge and muzzle wear along with scattered minor scratches and dings. The trigger guard has a smooth brown and gray patina. The casehardened components retain half of the bright original case colors with a smooth brown and gray patina on the balance. The wood is very good with scattered dings and dents. The forearm checkering is smoothed out. Mechanically excellent.
