Excellent, 95% plus of the original blue finish remains with some high edge and muzzle wear along with some scattered minor scratches. The casehardened components retain nearly all of the original case colors with some areas of fading. The wood is very good as heavily sanded and refinished with a few scattered minor dings and scratches. Metal to wood fit is poor. Mechanically excellent. The box is very good.
