Condition: Fine, with traces of the original blue and 60% of the original silver. A bright gray patina has formed on the barrel and cylinder, with some minor variations in color and minimal pitting and spotting. Patinated brass is visible along the edges and in a few patches on the frame, with an excellent aged color to the silver. Action is good. Grips are very fine, with exception of two thin hairline cracks on the top left and right center.
