CONDITION: Excellent. The rifle retains 95% bright original blue finish with some muzzle wear caused by the bayonet, some minor edge wear and thinning to gray on the trigger guard. The lever retains 80% original case colors, brightest in protected areas. The wood is also excellent with a few minor dents, dings, and crisp checkering. The engraving and markings are crisp and clear. The action is excellent. The bayonet is very good plus with some scratching on the blade from sliding in and out of the scabbard. The scabbard shows a couple minor cuts and some wear. The case is fine. The straps are absent and the handle is detached and in the case. The exterior shows some moderate wear and some cracking. The lining has a few worn areas and some scattered staining. The Holland & Holland label is very fine. The bullet mold and cleaning rod are excellent. Thisriter has never seen another Holland & Holland rifle of this configuration.
