Rating Definition:

Partially refinished, the side plate and grip straps with edge wear on the side plate and 95% blue finish remaining on the grip straps. There is wear on the lug slots. The remainder of the pistol is very fine and retains 90% original blue finish with some wear on the muzzle and high edges. The grips are excellent with a few minor nicks and dings in the otherwise crisp checkering. The markings remain clear. Mechanically excellent.
