I took a good look at the exterior just now. All of the exterior surfaces are black including TD lever, trigger and mag catch. The only exception is the ejector which is a plum color. The oil and the light make finish look shinier than it is. There are several small (smaller than the eagle stamp) rust spots (maybe 6 or 7) some of which involve minute pitting. the back of the grip strap had some handling rust that I removed with an oil soaked rag. You can see the spots if you look closely as they are a shade off of the finish. There is very minor holster wear at the muzzle on both sides (just on the edge). There is also slight finish wear on some of the moving parts. The rifling is sharp. I don't know how to judge finish issues in percent or how to grade a gun so I am pretty conservative about it. However, the more pictures I look at and the more I look at this gun, the better it looks.
