Excellent. The pistol retains 95% original blue finish showing some thinning and some minor holster wear. There is some minor pitting on the rear of the frame and toggle link. The small parts retain 75% original straw color. The grips are very fine with a few minor bruises and a couple small chips missing from the edges. Overall the checkering is crisp. Mechanically excellent.
