Rating Definition:

Very good, retains 20% faded blue finish with the balance a smooth brown patina. The receiver, lever, and hammer show patches of original case colors in sheltered areas with the balance faded to smooth crisp brown-gray patina. The reoiled wood is good with a moderate chip missing near the tang, a short crack in the grip on the left where it meets the receiver, and some minor scratches and dings. Mechanically excellent.
