Good to Fine. Bore is primarily Bright with strong rifling throughout, and pinpoint pitting near muzzle. Item retains a flaking blue strongest on cylinder, edges of frame, and barrel. Finish worn to brown patina on gripstrap and handling surfaces with brown flecking scattered overall. Some scratches and nicks to the edges of the metal. Continuous drag line to cylinder. Grips with some handling dents and scratches. Needs mechanical attention. Action indexes the cylinder, but the cylinder stop fails to engage and lock the action up.
