Excellent. The rifle retains 95% plus original bright blue finish showing some scattered light scratches and sharp edge wear on the receiver, the bottom of the magazine box and lever. The markings are crisp and clear. The wood is also excellent showing minor wear with a beautiful grain pattern and crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent.
