Description:

Manufactured in 1918. Standard fixed blade front and frame notch rear sights, two-line address on top of the barrel, and "UNITED STATES PROPERTY" marking on the underside. The underside of the barrel, yoke, and cylinder have small "H" inspection marks with matching numbers on the crane and yoke. The left side of the frame is stamped with the circled "GHS" inspection mark just ahead of the hammer. Smooth grips with a lanyard swivel and loop on the butt.

Rating Definition:

Very fine. 85% plus original brushed blue finish remains with some rotation marks on the cylinder, light scratches on the barrel and a mottled gray/brown patina on the grip straps. Grips are also very fine with some small dings, and a small chip at the left heel. Mechanically excellent.
