Fine. The barrel retains 85% original blue, the cylinder retains 90% original blue, the loading lever retains 60% original blue finish, and the frame retains traces of original blue finish in the protected areas with the balance a smooth brown patina. The otherwise fine slightly age shrunken grips have a chip on the bottom and attractive color. Mechanically excellent.
