Fine, with 70% of the blue finish, showing the start of a brown patina overall, with scattered light handling marks and spotting. The stock is good, with a deep scratch on the right side near the receiver, chipping around the floorplate, some lighter dents and scratches, and some wear under the sling. The scope is showing a brown patina on the body, with dim optics. Mechanically very good.
