Nickel finish has taken on a milky tone overall with some thinning and loss at the forward edges of the cylinder and muzzle. Some flaking to the nickel on the forward cylinder in places. Rear frame displays some light pitting at the corner behind the latch with brown patina forming in the losses. Some thinning of the finish on the forward trigger. Grips retain crisp details to the logos but show some light handling wear. Action exhibits good timing.
