Fine as partially refinished. The barrel and replacement magazine tube retain 95% original blue finish with some thinning on the barrel at the chamber with barrel vise marks on chamber. The hammer has a smooth dark patina. The receiver, breech bolt and lever retain 85% original vivid case colors with some minor spotting on the receiver. The buttplate has a smooth brown patina. The semi-deluxe stock and forearm has been refinished and remains very good. There is a minor crack on the underside of the forearm ahead of the receiver and the stock is slightly ill-fitting at the wrist. Overall there are only light handling marks. The markings are clear. The action is fine.
