CONDITION: Very good overall with approximately 60% factory finish remaining, balance turning plum with some finish loss at high points of receiver and at muzzle. 60-70% case colors remain on hammer & lever with crescent butt having turned mostly silver. Two piece Winchester stocks have what appears to be a contemporary finish applied, however stocks are still proud with little evidence of sanding. Action is extremely smooth and functioning properly.
