Good. The bore is Bright with strong rifling throughout and some residue near the muzzle. The overall metal finish is a brown patina with traces of case colors remaining on the recesses of the frame. Bluing remains in the seams of the triggerguard, and surrounding the ejector rod housing outer edges and the rear barrel. Grips display handling wear, some mars, and loss of fine details to the logos. The action times and indexes correctly with some wiggle to the lockup.
