Rating Definition:

Very fine, retains 80% plus original blue and nitre blue finishes with the balance a smooth grey patina, primarily on the grip straps, muzzle, and high spots/edges. The grips are also very fine with some scattered minor dings and scratches. Mechanically excellent. The stock is fine, retaining 30% of the original blue on the mounting hardware, with numerous minor dings and scratches throughout, and as a holster is slightly undersized for the pistol.
