Very Good. Bore shows some residues throughout that should clean to Minty with sharp rifling. External metal finish shows faint abrasions to the upper barrel from cycling, and three light scratches to the right hammer. Trigger displays some operating abrasions on the flanks. Left frame exhibits a light reassembly scratch below the slide stop. Grips retain crisp edges, but the right grip panel has some blue green oxidation forming on the medallion, some patina on the grip screws, and residue from degraded double-sided tape in the checkering. An aged brown piece of double-sided foam tape remains affixed to the interior of the display case. Case further shows some chips, dents, flakes, and abrasions to the painted exterior. Plexiglass front panel shows a pattern of scratches and mars.

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.
