Excellent. The pistol retains 90% plus slightly faded original blue finish showing some thinning to a brown, with moderate muzzle wear and some minor edge wear. The small parts retain 75% original straw color with some scattered light pitting on the right side of the trigger. The grips are fine with some noticeable nicks and some minor high edge wear on lower right grip. Overall the checkering is crisp.
