Condition report:
The pistol is in good overall condition. The stainless steel slide shows a clean satin finish with minimal handling marks. The blued frame retains a high percentage of its finish, with minor holster wear noted on the front of the trigger guard and the backstrap. The wood grips are well-preserved with an attractive grain and no significant chips or cracks. The bore is bright with strong, well-defined rifling. The action appears to function correctly, and the safety/decocker lever operates as intended. The magazines and case show minor external scuffing consistent with careful use.
