Condition report:
The high-polish stainless steel finish is in excellent condition, showing only very minor surface handling marks and a faint turn line on the cylinder. The bore is bright with sharp, well-defined rifling. The action appears to function correctly with a smooth hammer pull and tight cylinder lockup, though we have not function-tested this firearm. The white simulated ivory grips are well-preserved without cracks or chips. All included accessories and the factory case are in excellent condition.
