Rating Definition:

Fine. 85% refinished brushed blue remains on the frame with mild edge wear, light rounding on the frame edges, small dings, traces of light spotting and a mixed gray/brown patina on the grip straps and mainspring housing. The replacement slide retains 98% original blue. Grips are also fine with sharp checkering and small dings. Mechanically excellent.
