Very Good to Fine. Bore is lined with grease and residues that may clean to bright with crisp rifling throughout. Item retains a strong blue with some thinning to outer surface of the cylinder, flecking and flaking on mid barrel, and brown flecking focused most heavily on the grips and rear frame. Grips retain crisp details with the lower corners worn down. Trigger retains strong case colors including to trigger face. Mechanically functional and action exhibits good timing.
