Condition Report
Very good. Bores are bright, with light powder residue and drag lines. Finish is strong overall, with a loss to finish on bottom of right barrel. Wood stock is in good condition, with faint water spots to face of butt. Case has some undulating discoloration most likely due to getting wet at some point, along with faded appearance overall. Leather shows some light losses and cracking.
