Rating Definition:

Partially refinished. The barrel has been refinished and remarked, and shows some thin blue finish remaining. The cylinder retains 90% original blue finish with a drag line, some scratches and edge wear. The remaining surfaces have been cleaned and retain a bright appearance. The custom grips are fine with an attractive patina in the grain. The action is fine.
