Condition

Overall fine condition. The gun retains some of the original blue, of which some is faded slightly. There are three small patches of red rust: two on the top of the frame, and one on the cylinder. It has an excellent bore, and is tight and perfectly functional. The left hand grip is missing a small chip from the bottom right corner. The holster is very good, and not dried out. It has some minor scratches on the outside, and the muzzle end is slightly bent. The gun and holster clearly belong together.
