Nice smooth metal on the receiver with some blue remaining and the balance a pleasing aged color. Bbl has some wear and is mostly a grey/brown. Nice markings. Cal 32. Bore has decent rifling with some roughness and could use a good cleaning. The sights are a standard Winchester rear, flip globe front and desirable "popsickle stick" tang sight. A cool rare sight.
