Fair. The barrel and magazine tube have 30% original blue finish and scattered minor pitting overall. The receiver shows 20% original blue finish with a smooth mottled gray and brown patina on the balance. The wood has been sanded and revarnished, and remains very good with some minor nicks, dings and handling marks. The markings are clear. The action is fine.
