Sellers Notes: This gun is in Excellent condition, and has all the original Blued finish and Original Grips. We rate this gun at 96%, there is some small bluing loss at the muzzle on each side of the barrel, the grips have some small dings here and there, they are old! Under the trigger guard there is some bluing wear, the gun is not perfect! This would make for a great collectors piece, for a guy that wants to also shoot it. It is not museum perfect, this gun however has no rust or pitting we can find. The hammer and trigger are case hardened steel. Inside the crane it is stamped Mod. 10-5. The bore is great condition, rifling is strong and visible.
