Good. Bore is dusty throughout but should clean to Very Bright with sharp rifling. Flanks of the barrels and forward frame show oxidized spots and patina forming on the edges with further patina along the edges of the cylinder and flanks of the hammer. Flecking forming over the flanks of the frame. Grips show handling wear, some skips, and stains overall with some loss of fine detail to the medallions. Action shows good timing.
