Matching serial numbers are present overall, including inside the grips and on the renumbered (to match) magazine base.

Rating Definition:

Very fine, with 85% of the original blue finish, showing bright edge wear, areas of brown patina, and mild spotting and handling marks. 60% of the original straw color is present, with a gray patina on the remainder and some strong traces of the niter blue in the protected areas. Some chips are present on the magazine base, and the grips are fine with some minor scuffs and dings. The holster is very good, with some scuffing and cracking. Mechanically excellent.
