Very fine. The revolver retains 60% original blue finish with areas of gray and brown patina. The cylinder has a mottled gray patina with a small amount of very minor pitting on the front edge. The grips are very good with 98% original varnish remaining showing some lower edge wear and scattered minor dings and dents. The markings are clear. The action is fine. The case is fine.
