The firearm comes with a rear fully adjustable target square notch and front fixed graduated blade for precise shooting.
Minor finish wear on the muzzle-end of the barrel, charging handle, and receiver are proof of its authentic history. The bore is bright and clean, a testament to its excellent condition. Despite the minor surface rust in the serrations, the handgun operates flawlessly.
