Rating Definition:

Good, missing parts (see above). With a primarily smooth gray patina. All visible markings are clear. Displaying small amounts of scattered spotting. Grips are very good, with the left panel stamped on the outside to match the numbers on the gun. This has been done on the right panel as well, except it is on the inside of the grip. Mechanically fair. The safety and firing pin are absent.
