Very fine. The barrel and magazine retain 97% original blue finish and the receiver retains 30% original blue finish with almost all of the loss due to flaking. There is a smooth brown patina on the balance of the receiver. The wood is excellent with some minor finish loss at the butt, and overall some minor dents and handling marks. The markings are clear. Mechanically excellent.
