I won this on a GB auction last night it's a a shop not to far away so picking up in the morning looks pretty clean. I have a three day return on it so will take a hard look at the frame to make sure it isn't cracked. Here are a few auction pictures.

Picked up the model 12-2 finish is very nice save two small scuffs on the edge of top strap. I doubt it was fired much if any post factory looking at the cylinder. Boy are these things light. No crack in frame. The bluing on the anodized frame is well blue more so than the steel parts of the gun nice color case hardening on hammer, and trigger probably made around 1965. I am going to display it along side the alloy cylinder I picked up several years it dates in the 1953 sn range. Hopefully when the weather clears I can get some pictures
 
I love my 12-2 RB. I got it cheap in the consignment case of a Tactical Ted LGS- I think they wanted to move it fast so it didn't get Fudd cooties on the black guns. Lots of carry wear means it's a great shooter and duty piece. I typically load it with 130 gr Federal/Win FMJ or 110 gr Silvertips.
