Nothing annoying here!

Looks like a great candidate for a bit of attention then straight to the field.

I see a set trigger.
Scalloped action too.
Nice grip shape.
Wood looks savable.
The trigger guard tang looks loose at the wrist.
I'd have the locks and trigger plate off for cleaning and inspection.
Right lock might have a somewhat different tumbler than the left lock for that set trigger.

It's too late in my day to grab a proof marks directory.
I'd be looking for my Cerrosafe alloy and then clean and cast both chambers.
I'd slug the rifle bore.
