The revolver has a .22 caliber insert with threads at the muzzle fitted with a brass nut and leather washer. The cylinder is stepped and has Birmingham proofs.

Very fine with 70% original blue finish, gray and brown patina on the balance, some minor oxidation, mild pitting mainly on the hammer, and general scratches and marks. The grips are very good and have mostly crisp checkering, moderate scratches and marks, and edge wear. Mechanically excellent. The case is very good and has mild age and storage wear.
