Condition report:
The stainless steel finish is in good condition overall, showing signs of use including visible carbon fouling on the cylinder face and around the muzzle, along with faint surface handling marks and a light cylinder turn line. The bore is bright with sharp rifling. The action appears to function correctly in both single and double action; we have not function-tested this firearm. The black rubber grips are in very good condition with sharp texturing. The included leather holster and soft case are in good, serviceable condition.
