The stock and magazine cap have a after market sling eye installed for sling carry. The stock and handguard have all the varnish intact. The barrel and magazine blue would rate a 97% overall condition The reciever would rate a 98% condition. The take down feature is very tight with no play. This is a very fine condition riot gun that has seen very little use or carry. Being a late model riot gun also adds to the appeal to the collector. Search for hlvfineguns on google for more details.
