Excellent, with 95% of the original blue finish, showing bright edge wear, some thinning on the grip straps, and minor handling marks. The grips are also excellent, with some stains and dings on the otherwise sharp checkering. The holster is very good, with light cracking of the closure strap and mild scuffing overall. Mechanically excellent.
