CONDITION: Excellent plus,
with 97% plus original
blue finish, with some light
scratches concentrated around
the lugs. The casehardened
components retain 99% bright
and vivid case colors, with
some fading along the edges
and a number of dings on
the rear of the triggerguard
bow. Some oxidization
is present, with verdigris
buildup on the front sight,
the edges of the ribs, and
the cocking indicators. The
stock is also excellent, with
some scratches and storage
marks. Mechanically excellent.
The case is fine as restored,
with some rust on the latch
hardware, minor flaking of
the professionally reapplied/
restenciled paint, and verdigris
buildup on the cleaning tools.
Estimate: 22,500 - 37,500
