The left side of the barrel has rarely encountered caliber marking "44 S&W CTG" and the top of the barrel rib has the one-line address marking. Pinned blade front sight and a notch rear sight on the catch. The matching serial number is stamped on the butt, rear cylinder face, barrel and catch. Blue finish with casehardened hammer and trigger guard. Fitted with desirable checkered walnut grips.

Rating Definition:

Fine. The revolver retains 70% original blue finish thinning to a mixed gray/brown patina at the muzzle, grip straps, frame and exposed edges. The trigger guard and hammer retain 97% vivid original case colors. The grips are excellent with some very scattered minor handling marks and overall crisp checkering. Mechanically fine.
