Condition:
The cocking action appears to be in working order. There are some small areas of inlay missing to the hardwood stock and a few occasional small fixings missing. the barrel is a little worn because you can see patterning on each side which has been worn and pitted on top. the brass and hardwood stock has old dents wear and patina consistent with age and use, otherwise in reasonable condition.
