Very fine. The revolver retains 85% original blue finish with most of the finish loss on the cylinder which has a mix of dark patina and original blue finish. There is some thinning on the grip straps and scattered minor oxidation. The hammer and trigger retain most of the original case colors. The grips are excellent with light handling marks and crisp checkering. The markings are clear. The action is fine. The box is good as badly faded, showing some edge wear and fraying of the exterior material and light stains. There is some moderate wear to the tops of the inside walls , some wear and some staining in the interior.
