Very fine as arsenal upgraded to M1D configuration, retains 98% parkerized finish with a few light scratches and some light edge wear. The arsenal refurbished replacement stock is also very fine with a few light handling marks and defined edges. Scope is excellent, retains 97% original blue finish on the tube with a few light scratches, some patches of minor freckling, and crisp clear optics. Mechanically excellent.
