The grips are also in excellent condition. The blued finish is about 98% with small spot of rust on the face of the muzzle, and some very light superficial scratches. The color-case hardened parts retain 99% of their finish, and the polished parts are excellent. The markings are crisp and clear, and the action is smooth and tight. It comes with the factory box, instruction manual, and other paperwork. This firearm is in excellent condition minus the one rust spot on the muzzle mentioned earlier.
