I've been storing this at home for a while, but I'm selling it since I don't use it. There are many scratches, so I've repaired from section #4 to #1. The butt section is original. When pulling out section #4 from the butt section, it feels a little snaggy, but it comes out quickly. I don't think it will affect use. There are cracks in the rubber of the butt cap. Please refrain from purchasing if you are concerned about any of the above. I am also selling this elsewhere, so I will remove the listing when it's gone. Please understand that this is a no-returns, no-claims, no-cancellation sale.
