Fair. Bore primarily bright with a ring at mid length likely from a squib load. Blued finish shows flaking and streaks overall, edgewear, and brown patina on handling surfaces. Grips show some handling dents and scratches. Due to the barrel ring, this gun should be inspected by a gunsmith prior to firing.
