Rating Definition:

Very fine as arsenal refurbished with 90% of the arsenal dip blue finish showing a few patches of gray patina, scattered scratches, and bright edge wear and spotting overall. Some scuffing and tool marks are present on and around the screws. The grips are good replacements with some light pressure dents. Mechanically excellent.
