Good. The revolver displays a blend of gray and brown patina overall and has some slight oxidation and surface pitting. The grip is also good with some shrinking and aged cracks. The action functions fine, and the engraving and markings are mostly crisp. The rig is fair with mild overall wear including some cracking and small bits absent from some edges.
