The matching serial number is marked on the bottom of the frame, trigger guard and back strap, and the partial serial number "528" is on the rear face of the cylinder. The loading gate is marked with the assembly number "757". Standard blade front and frame notch rear sights, casehardened frame with blue remaining parts and fitted with checkered hard rubber grips with the Rampant Colt in an oval at the top.

Very good plus. The metal surfaces have traces of blue with the balance a mottled gray patina with traces of original blue finish in protected areas, showing some minor pitting on the cylinder and frame. The grips are fine with the left panel faded to brown and showing some minor wear, a couple dents and crisp checkering. The markings are clear. The action is fine, hand cycles correctly but the timing is slightly off.
