Still shows lots of the old high luster blue. Checkering is nice and sharp. No cracks. Nice tang sight and Lyman #6. Couple small blemishes on the perch belly butt, but all in all a very beautiful rifle. I had to choose between two that were available but when I saw this one the decision was made for me. This was the better of the two and much less money. I'm STILL smiling.

It's one of those guns that doesn't come along everyday for me so I had to strike while the iron was hot. Someone told me they wished I was a collector rather than a shooter...............I need to have a LONG chat with that fellow.
