Very fine. The barrel and magazine retain 90% original blue finish thinning to a brown patina. The receiver and buttplate retain 70% original blue finish with the balance a smooth brown patina. Half of the slightly faded case colors remain on the hammer and lever. 40% of the original blue remains on the loading gate. The wood is excellent with a few scattered minor handling marks. Mechanically excellent.
