Condition

Fair. Fair bore is pitted with visible rifling. Metal with traces of blue on the barrel, frame and cylinder with a poor quality dull reblued finish. Cylinder scene essentially gone, some markings clear, others weak. Mechanically functional but action feels strange and probably need some mechanical attention. Screw heads heavily worn. Grip sanded with some dings and mars.
