Very Good. Bore is Frosty with patina throughout and some patched oxidation with strong rifling. Item retains much of the silver on the frame with the flanks and edges having worn down, and further finish worn off the grip panels. Cylinder retains much of the blue with further finish remaining on the barrel within flutes. Finish showing a mottled brown patina forming on the flats of the barrel, and on the losses to the cylinder. Grips show notches to the right edge of the butt with some flaking to the finish. Action indexes, but fails to lock into place due to missing stop.

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.
