Very Good. Bore is Frosty with light a light brown patina throughout and some patches of pinpoint patina. The blued finish has faded to a brown patina overall with some traces of the blue at the edges of the ejector rod housing and the barrel. The frame is a gray to brown patina with scattered light pitting over the recoil shield and forward frame. The grips have been sanded and refinished, and have thus receded from the edges of the metal. The grips are stained on the left side with some scattered mars and chips on the edges of the butt. The cylinder shows a drag line, some rounding on the edges and scattered pinpoint pitting. Action times and indexes correctly.
