Very Good. Bore is Very Bright with sharp rifling throughout. Blued finish shows some internal cycling wear, some thinning spots on the slot with spots of brown patina forming on the upper surfaces. Grips retain fine details and crisp edges. Magazines show insertion and handling wear. Holster has some cracking along the flap, and stains throughout the interior.
