Condition report:
The rifle is in good service condition. The blued metal finish shows thinning and wear consistent with military use, primarily on the barrel bands, receiver edges, and bolt handle. The walnut stock and handguards exhibit various minor dings, scratches, and handling marks but remain solid with no visible major cracks. The bore is bright with strong rifling. The bolt action appears to function correctly, and the magazine seats securely. We have not function-tested this firearm.
