Good, the barrels retain 25% of the original blue finish in the protected areas with a smooth brown and gray patina on the balance. There are some scattered minor scratches and some very minor freckling. The trigger guard has been repaired and has a niter blue color towards one end. The casehardened components retain traces of original case colors in the protected areas with a smooth silver/gray patina on the balance. The wood is good as refinished with a repaired break at the wrist, some scattered dings, some scattered scratches and a filler repair at the upper tang and at the toe. The buttplate has been repaired as well. Mechanically fine but the front trigger does not set.
