The top of the barrel rib is marked with the one line address and patent dates. Blade front sight with notch rear sight and fitted with smooth pearl grips.

Rating Definition:

Fine. The revolver retains 70% of the original finish overall, concentrated mainly on the cylinder, hammer, ejector pin and protected areas. The balance has a smooth gray patina. The grips are excellent with a tiny chip on the left toe and overall light handling marks. The markings and engraving are clear. The action is excellent. The case is very good with a few minor scratches and dings on the exterior and some contact wear and soiling on the lining. The cartridge box is very fine with almost all of the labels remaining.
