Overall this one looks like a shooter. The amount of finish left inside and out (it's mostly "patina'd" now) lead me to believe this piece was kicking around in a pocket or a nightstand drawer WAY more than it was fired.
Physical condition is "old but probably works great" and it looks to me like it would be a great carry piece. . . if .32 were a suitable caliber for self-defense, and the Kel-Tek line hadn't been invented yet, that is.
A lot of the places that are not covered in patina are getting close to "in the white," but check out the exterior of the barrel. This thing isn't covered in GSR. That's most of the original finish you're seeing on the barrel.
Original grips are showing some shelf wear and maybe a couple of minor drop-checks.
The barrel is bright, with sharp rifling. A little cleaning wouldn't hurt it though.
This last set of images shows what you will see on all the metal, if you examine the piece under very bright lighting: the bluing, she is mostly gone. Also, the included magazine is pitted all to heck on the outside but it would surprise me if it took more than some feedlip tweaking to make it run right.
Available until it's not. Get it while it lasts.
