Bore is good to very good condition. Blued parts are mostly an even brown patina. Bare metal receiver is mottled with much brown patina showing as smaller spots. Stock is fair condition, broken at toe & repaired, lightly sanded with slightly loose bands. Barrel, magazine, and stock have been cut down to result in a shorter length, with bands moved back to retain the overall look of components and spacing relative to muzzle. Markings include crown over "SPANDAU", crown over "FW". Observed numbers match on receiver, barrel, stock fittings. Bolt is mismatched. Missing upper buttplate screw. Condition is NRA Very Good (as modified) *** Antique Firearm ***
