Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
First introduced in 1904, the Colt Officers Model Target quickly established itself as the gold standard for American competitive bullseye shooting. Built on Colt's renowned medium E-frame platform, the Third Issue (produced from 1930 to 1949) introduced the highly requested heavy tapered barrel along with a recessed cylinder face, flat-top receiver, and refined adjustable target sights. Renowned for hand-fitted craftsmanship and exceptional match-grade accuracy, pre-war Officers Model Target revolvers in .22 LR remain highly prized by Colt collectors.
This exact revolver, serial number 7666, was manufactured at the historic Hartford, Connecticut factory in 1933. Chambered in .22 Long Rifle with a 6-shot cylinder, it features a 6-inch heavy tapered barrel, adjustable target front and rear sights, checkered trigger face, checkered hammer spur, and original silver medallion checkered walnut grips. It comes paired with a fitted vintage dark leather holster with snap closure. Presenting in honest original pre-war condition with character-rich finish wear and light surface freckling along the barrel, sharp rollmarks, tight lockup, and a mirror-bright bore, this 1932 Colt Officers Model Target .22 LR is an outstanding piece for C&R collectors, pre-war Colt purists, or vintage bullseye enthusiasts.
