Very fine, with 85% plus thin faded parkerized finish remaining, with some bright edge wear and scattered handling marks. The slide shows mild dings concentrated on the left side, with a few gaps in the patent date lettering, a double-struck "G.H.D." on the frame and some denting on the outer edges of the magazine well. The grips are excellent, with light wear on the screw heads and a few dings on the sharp checkering. Mechanically excellent.
