Condition report:
The metal components exhibit a blued finish with visible thinning and handling wear, particularly along the barrel and at the muzzle. The action appears to function correctly, though we have not function-tested this firearm. The custom wood stock retains a high-gloss finish with scattered light scratches, dings, and surface impressions consistent with field use. The red rubber recoil pad shows typical signs of aging and hardening but remains intact. The bore was not inspected.
