Overall condition is very good, having worn to mostly gray, mixed with traces of blue finish in between the barrels, and moderate darkening/patina. Grips with expected light marks from age and use, no significant blemishes, showing considerable remaining oil finish. Factory lettering is clear. Action is crisp.
