Condition
Good to very good. Bore and chambers are bright. Finish to barrel and frame do not match, barrel finish is somewhat grayer/duller than frame finish. Possibly replaced or worked on at some point. Remainder of finish shows some light scratches and sprinkled pitting overall. Grips are in good condition, with some light wear to checkering. Cylinder lockup is solid and timing appears to be good.
