The safety spring retains some of its original nitre bluing and the double trigger has an overall freckled gray patina, however the stud for the no longer present detachable loading lever is cleanly broken on the left front of the frame, and the front sight is broken. The revolver is marked on the left side of the frame with the Tranter patent stamp along with a Potts & Hunt London retailer's marking along the topstrap.

The finely checkered English walnut grip is in very good shape with only some minor handling marks and even, mild flattening of the points. The back of the grip has a small silver escutcheon with the armorial crest of Lieutenant-Colonel Gould Read Hunter-Weston: a greyhound sejant proper, gorged with an antique crown/collar; charged upon the shoulder for distinction with a cross crosslet gules (the latter not be to borne by his descendants). The action lock-up is good and the mechanism is fully functional. The revolver is housed in its original oaken traveling case with dark green baize-lined interior and engraved armorial crest on the circular brass cover plaque.

The case contains period accessories as well: a lightly flaked Dixon powder flask with patent top, original brass double-cavity bullet mold, ebony cleaning rod with jag tip, japanned tin of Eley pistol caps, and a small plastic bag containing a few 'top hat' style musket caps.

He later became a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries, Justice of the Peace for Ayr (Scotland), and a Knight of Justice and Honourable Commander of the Knights of St. John of Jerusalem in England.
