Measurement: .32 caliber

Material: Case: 2" x 9.5" x 4.25"; Pistol Overall Length: 7.25"; Barrel Length: 3.5"

Item Condition: Excellent, showing only the lightest evidence of trivial freckling to nickel in recessed corners (minor lifting on trigger that doesn’t distract or compromise), with some extremely minor handling marks and clouding normal to nickel mentioned for accuracy. Mechanically fine, bore is very good with strong rifling and a few areas of minor pitting about halfway down barrel interior. Case is very good, lining with impressions from revolver, and handling marks throughout. Some peeling to exterior, mostly to bottom, lock may be replaced.
