Fair. The barrel retains traces of period refinished blue finish mixed with smooth grayish patina. The buttplate has a smooth mottled silver gray patina and the remaining metal surfaces have a mix of thin original blue finish and smooth brownish gray patina. The wood has been freshened with a coat of varnish and remains very good with a hairline crack on the left side of the forearm and some minor dings and handling marks. The markings remain crisp and clear. The action is fine.
