Overall in nice original condition and appears to function just fine. Both hammer springs are strong and robust.
Not recommended for shooting due to its age and laminated barrels.
Not certain if the gun was made prior to January 1, 1899 so would like to ship it to a C&R or FFL. Must accept shipment directly from me with a signed copy of my driver’s license with details of the sale.
