Very Good. Bore is Minty with sharp rifling throughout. Blued finish shows some flecking at the backstrap, some abrasions at the muzzle, and a turn ring on the cylinder. Casehardened finish retains vibrant colors with some operating wear to the hammer flanks. Some traces of hardened lubricants that must be cleaned on the exterior, and firing residues on the interior frame. Grips display some light scuffs and flakes to the finish at the butt of the left panel. Cardboard box has some abrasions along the edges and stains to the manual. Action exhibits good timing.
