Caveat emptor unless the seller made specific claims that the rifles were in pristine condition and well oiled with no rust.
That looks like simply surface rust; if so, that could have developed overnight by a little moisture. Still, if the gun was properly lubricated, it would not have happened.

How is the rest of the bore?? Take an undersized brass brush & wrap it with 0000 steel wool & that will clean the chamber right up.
If the lead / rifling is damaged then it could affect the accuracy, but I've seen plenty of bores that look like gator skin shoot lights out. Let the paper indicate if it's a keeper, not the looks of the internals.

I enlarged the picture and see brass and rust is this correct? There is a real sharp burr on the chamber mouth as well. Need a little more information to determine what is in there. What does the bolt face look like, is the extractor and ejector still good? Someone bought another man's junk, your bud got his eyes poked out with that purchase.
I would take it to a good gunsmith and let them run a bore scope in the chamber and the throat. If that is just rust build up then the bolt and trigger needs to be taken apart and cleaned as well.
I would not just go shoot it, but I aint the one owning it so do what you want I reckon.
