Condition report:
The rifle exhibits an honest, used condition consistent with its age. The blued barrel and bolt show areas of surface oxidation and light freckling throughout. The receiver finish shows moderate wear and silvering along the high edges and top rail. The bore is bright with sharp rifling. The hardwood stock remains solid with various minor dings, scratches, and impressions from field use, though the pressed checkering remains distinct. The action appears to function correctly when cycled manually, but the firearm has not been function-tested with live ammunition.
