Brass receiver has beautifully aged to a dark mustard patina with numerous minor dings from usage on the frontier in the Wild West. Hammer and lever are mostly brown with some gray. Loading gate has good fire blue remaining. Original saddle ring is present. Nice crisp functioning action. Nice looking walnut stock set shows a little extra figure with some scattered minor dings and scratches and still fits proud to the metal. Brass crescent buttplate matches the receiver.
