Barrels retain virtually all of their bluing with some very minor marks from the field. 20 gauge barrels have a small patch of cleaned oxidation at the bloc, and a slight depression in the rib. Receiver with virtually all of the French grey finish with some minor handling marks. Stock is excellent, slightly proud to metal, with some minor handling marks, most noticeable on the toe line. Mechanically fine, bores are free of pitting with some mild frosting from use, ejectors are very slightly out of time, top firing first. Case is very good, accessories excellent. An excellent set.
