Rating Definition:

Very good plus. The barrel retains 25% original blue finish in the protected areas around the front sight, the breech end and around the ejector rod housing, with a grayish patina on the balance and some minor pitting on the left side of the muzzle. The cylinder retains 40% original blue finish, thin on the flats and strong in the flutes. The grip straps have a smooth gray patina with strong original blue finish in the protected areas around the trigger guard and top of the back strap. The frame has 20% original case colors remaining, mostly in the forward portion, with a smooth mottled gray patina on the balance. The grips are good with overall moderate wear, a small chip on the left toe and a few minor dings on the bottom of the right panel. The markings are clear. The action is excellent.
