Very fine, 90% plus of the original parkerized finish remains with some high edges, cycling and sight cover wear along with some scattered minor scratches. The stock is very fine with scattered scratches, dings and a few minor chips are absent. Mechanically excellent. The sling is good and the sight covers are very good.
