Very good with 30% nickel finish remaining mixed with a dark gray patina. There is some minor pitting on the cylinder. The grip is also very good with numerous age cracks, heavy on the right side, and an attractive grain and dark caramel patina on the left side and a lighter patina on the right. The markings are clear. The action is fine.
