Rating Definition:

Fine, retains 85% original blue finish on the barrel and cylinder and 50% original case colors with the balance a smooth grey patina. The butt and back strap are refinished. The grips are very fine with a few light handling marks, sanding visible on the bottom flats, and crisp checkering overall. Mechanically excellent.
