Excellent. The revolver retains 95% bright original high polish blue finish with some edge wear and thinning on the back strap and trigger guard. There is some minor flash pitting around the nipple recesses. The loading lever retains 70% original bright niter blue finish. The hammer and trigger remain bright. The grip is excellent with sharp checkering. The markings are crisp and clear. The action is excellent. The case is very fine with a slightly warped lid and a few minor scratches on the exterior and some minor contact wear on the lining. One of the compartment walls is broken. The accessories are all very fine.
