Rating Definition:

Very fine, retains 90% plus of the bright original high polish blue finish with the balance having thinned to mostly a smooth brown patina, primarily on the cylinder. 70% of the attractively aged original silver finish remains with the balance having thinned to an attractively aged brass. The grips are excellent with only the slightest wear/handling marks. Mechanically excellent. The case is very fine with some light handling/storage wear.
