Sellers Condition Notes: We would rate this gun at good to fair condition. More Good, the bluing looks all original on the barrel and receiver, there is no rust or pitting on the barrel that we can find. It appears there was once a front sight that has been removed, the screws look like they were cut off to remove it. It is very possible the stock was re-finish while together with the barrel and action. We can see some stock finish on the side of the barrel, as if the barrel was not taped off. The gun functions correctly and will fire. The stock does not show any cracks however there is finish loss as you can see in the pictures and marks. The butt plate looks original, and the scope has a clear reticle and good glass. There are sling studs so you can attach a sling. The bore shows visible rifling, and appears good. Look over the pictures for more on the condition.
