Fitted with a milled short trigger, wide hammer, checkered magazine release and thumb safety, serrated slide catch, long grip safety, checkered arched mainspring housing, reinforced grips, "L" full blue magazine and "HS" High Standard barrel.

Excellent, with 97% plus of the parkerized finish, showing some bright edge wear and handling marks overall, as well as the start of a brown patina on the grip straps. The grips are also excellent, with some light dings. Mechanically excellent.
