Mechanics The gun is mechanically excellent. Action works well
Condition In our professional opinion, the pistol has been refinished many years ago. Perhaps 100 plus years ago with a new rust blue and new silver trigger guard. The pistol was used, it wasn't a wall hanger for someone. It appears to have classic black powder wear, but kept in good working condition.
"Outlaw" I've taken the liberty of naming this one "Outlaw" as it appears to have been heavily used and flashy with its engraving and ivory grips. Whoever owned it, used it a lot, but also cared about the way it looked, having purchased it as engraved with ivory in New York. They also had the means to refinish it sometime later to keep it from rusting or corroding.
Shipping This firearm is classified as an ATF antique and requires no FFL transfer, it ships directly to your door.
