If you hadn't bid I most likely would have but I recognized your name and refrained . I didn't see anything to be worried about on that gun . Looks like most the finish is gone but for a 135 year old gun what do you expect . And the price was right or atleast I thought it was . But like I said earlier if it had been a Grade 2 I most likely woulda made you pay more to get it .
