Grips are sound showing moderate wear with right side turning chocolate. Bore is dark with good rifling and moderate pitting. Good mechanics.

There are a couple spots of rust on the left side of the frame. All matching except the grips which are unnumbered. Grips show light to moderate wear with the right side turning chocolate.
