Excellent, with 90% plus original blue finish, showing some bright edge wear, minor spotting and light handling marks. 80% of the original straw colors are present on the small parts, with strong niter blue on the seat spring. The grips are fine, with a chip absent near the safety switch and minor dings on the otherwise crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent.
