Condition
Fair to Good. Bore is Bright with strong rifling throughout. Metal finish is dominated by a deep brown patina overall with some blue remaining in the seams of the barrel at the frame, around the front sight, and to the rear of the cylinder. Replacement grips retain crisp checkering with some light scratches and loss of silver finish to the left medallion. Action displays good timing.
