RK,
the side plate looks like the gun might have a light pitting problem on it. Pitting always worries me. The locking bolt looks rounded like an amatuer did some restrawing. Its supposed to be flat with champhered edges. I can't remember if the bore quality was mentioned. Replacement grips. Original mag, but that doesn't matter on a range gun.
Not a collector, tough year to get, but maybe at a tad over a thou, it might be a good gun for the range. Sent your limits at a little over a thou and stick to it or wait for the more common years of 1916 or 1917 with British proofs and try for better quality for the same money.
