Arms, Armor and Militaria

Good. Bore about fair to good, dark and heavily oxidized with pitting and visible rifling. Metal with a moderately oxidized brown patina with some surface roughness and some lightly scattered pitting. Roll markings remain mostly clear and legible with the cylinder scene being weak and only about one third visible. Action needs mechanical attention as the hammer will not hold in the full cock position. Otherwise, the action appears to function correctly. Brass with a lightly cleaned, medium golden color. Grip with moderate wear, scattered bumps, dings and mars, some light sanding and minor chips at the sharp leading and trailing edges on the bottom.

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.
