Mechanics: The action functions correctly. The cylinder produces nominal side to side play with no back play in full lockup of all 6 chambers. The double action trigger pull is smooth, single action is crisp. We did not fire this handgun. As with all used firearms, a thorough cleaning may be necessary to meet your maintenance standards.

A sheet of old brown paper is included, it did a good job preserving the metal, the paper is in Very Good condition.
