Action retains nearly all of its coin finish, with a few areas of darkening in action beads, and sculpted portion of breech. Stocks retain nearly all of their finish with a number of small marks, mostly on left side near butt. Checkering is excellent. Fratelli Piotti manufactures about 70 extremely high quality guns per year. This fine gun has an MSR of over $60K. 4-40474 MGM83 (30,000-50,000)
