Very good. The metal surfaces have a dark brown patina with scattered thin original blue finish, mainly in protected areas. There is some minor spotting on the receiver. The wood is also good with some dings and scratches, (mainly on the stock) and crisp checkering. There is some insect damage on the buttplate. The markings are clear. The action functions fine.
