Outstanding! You'd be a fool to touch that rifle at all it's beautiful as is. I don't know if you can't see it in person but the receivers case hardening comes through in the photo just fine. Beautiful wood too.

I will not have it refinished as I think it should remain original, That special front sight is quite rare to find

Very nice old rifle. Hard to beat that old dark Winchester wood, it’s beautiful.
