Arms, Armor and Militaria Online

Fair. Bore very good, mostly bright with moderate frosting, scattered light pitting and good rifling. Metal with much of the applied bright nickel on the slide with some flaked wear and with frame showing more loss, a dull milky patina on much of the metal and some wear. Pistol appears to be mechanically functional when cycled by hand but as the pistol has a magazine safety and no magazine is present, it is not possible to make sure that the firing pin releases correctly when the trigger is pulled. Grips with some wear but very good.

The physical condition of lots in our auctions can vary due to age, normal wear and tear, previous damage, and restoration/repair. All lots are sold "AS IS," in the condition they are in at the time of the auction, and we and the seller make no representation or warranty and assume no liability of any kind as to a lot's condition. Any reference to condition in a catalogue description or a condition report shall not amount to a full accounting of condition. Condition reports prepared by Freeman's staff are provided as a convenience and may be requested from the Department prior to bidding.

The absence of a posted condition report on the Freeman's website or in our catalogues should not be interpreted as commentary on an item's condition. Prospective buyers are responsible for inspecting a lot or sending their agent or conservator to inspect the lot on their behalf, and for ensuring that they have requested, received and understood any condition report provided by Freeman's.
