Condition report:
Overall fair to good condition, consistent with age and military use. The wooden stock and forend exhibit numerous scuffs, scratches, and dings. The blued finish on the metal components shows areas of loss, wear, and some surface oxidation, particularly on the receiver and barrel. The canvas sling is worn and faded. The brass buttplate shows tarnishing and minor abrasions. Mechanical action appears to be present, but functionality is untested and not guaranteed.
