Wow, that old!
Thank you. I was thinking in the 60's.... It is not mint, and it is still being used little now and then. I would say 85% new condition. The frame has no bluing just behind the cylinder release, and on the sides of the hammer. The bluing is thin on the rest of the frame, but not worn off. I have shot it a few times myself, and it shoots a lot better than I thought a four inch bbl would. Better groups than my 5 inch Beretta 96, which fires a .40 S&W, at least on the first try.... By berreta is new and I am still geting used to it.
Thank you once again, this was a question that had been around for a while. Take care, shoot safe.
