Excellent. The rifle retains 97% plus original blue finish with some minor flaking on the barrel, and normal cycling wear on the magazine tube and slide arm. The stock is also excellent with only a couple very minor pressure dents and handling marks. The markings are sharp. Mechanically excellent. The box is currently wrapped in cellophane and remains fine with some edge and corner wear.
