Excellent. The pistol retains 95% original blue finish with some minor edge wear, some minor thinning on the grip straps, and extensive muzzle wear. There is some minor pitting on the breechblock, toggle, and front grip strap. The grips are excellent with some minor wear in the overall crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent.
