Unfortunately it actually isn't in excellent shape. It's in GOOD shape, but has some places where the black has come off the aluminum frame and there is some wear on the bluing. But all in all, I'm happy with it. Probably paid a bit more than it's worth, but I'm glad I got it. Again, I'll try to get some better pics of it, . . . hopefully this afternoon. Had the sun shining right on it and that doesn't always make for the best of pics.
