Colt Woodsman Match Target
Nice find at a great price! These are great shooters, I enjoy the heck out of mine from 1966. Have fun!

Dynamite and sounds like a super price. Can't beat finding the steel guns like these anywhere.

I've owned two of them, back in my competitive Bullseye shooting days. None better. My first one was a postwar model (1947, I believe), the second was from right at the end of Colt production in the early 1980s, brand new in the box. I never fired it. I would like to find another at that price.

Guten Tag,
I've got one too. It looks like wood grips instead of the "coltwood" pastic grips, very nice. Mine likes CCI as well.
Enjoy and Cheers,

I'm no expert with Woodsmans, but it kinda looks like your assembly lock plunger is missing.
(I'm thinking that it should be protruding from the hole on top of the slide in about the middle of the rear sight)

I competed with one of these, late 1970s. Very well made, quite accurate. Devilish to strip and clean. Like the pre Mark IV Rugers, you'll hosebit with brake cleaner and spray in some CLP. Eccentrics price you paid. I sold mine for more than that about 5 years ago.

Back in my Military days we had a dozen of these in the armory along with a equal number of Colt Officer Model Match .38 Revolvers

Sure makes me think of that Colt Bullseye Target I saw more than 50 years back. Elephantine grips with bullseye target engraved on barrel. Probably made in late 30s or early 40s.

I think the Match Targets are the finest of that Woodsman line.
