The right side of the barrel extension has a small Geneva Cross and the left side has a small "+/M" marking. A small Geneva Cross is present on the barrel, barrel extension, toggle and frame. The grips are the unique checkered variation with smooth borders, and the nickel finished magazine has a hardwood base with nickel disc inlays.

Very fine, with 85% of the arsenal blue finish, showing bright edge wear and light handling marks overall. 70% of the straw color is present on the small parts, with the remainder a mixed gray, and the grips are also very fine with some mild dings on the otherwise sharp checkering. The holster is very good, with mild verdigris buildup and wear. Mechanically excellent.
