NRA standards
of Condition for Modern Firearms
NEW:
Not previously sold at retail, in same condition as
factory production.
EXCELLENT: New condition, used very
little, no noticeable marring of wood or metal, bluing perfect (except
at muzzle and sharp edges).
VERY GOOD: In perfect working condition,
no appreciable wear on working surfaces, no corrosion or pitting, only
minor surface dents or scratches.
GOOD: In safe working condition, minor
wear on working surfaces, no broken parts, no corrosion or pitting that
will interfere with proper functioning.
FAIR: In safe working condition but
well worn, perhaps requiring replacement of minor parts or adjustments
that should be indicated in advertisement. No rust but may have corrosion
pits that do not render the gun unsafe or inoperable.
POOR: Badly worn, rusty and battered,
perhaps requiring major adjustment or repairs to place in operating
condition.
