Overall finish is blue, with fine casehardening on the trigger and safeties, a pair of checkered grips with Colt medallions, and a two-tone Colt magazine.

Rating Definition:

Near new in box, with 99% of the original blue finish, showing some light handling marks overall. The vivid original case colors are strong and sharp. The grips are also excellent with some light dings and wear. The exceptionally fine box shows some light wear on the edges, with some foxing around the edges of the end label. Mechanically excellent.
