Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Colt Woodsman Second Series Match Target is one of the finest examples of mid-20th-century American rimfire target pistols, showcasing the precision engineering and craftsmanship of Colt's Manufacturing Company. Produced from 1947 to 1955 as part of the redesigned Second Series Woodsman line, the Match Target variant was specifically tailored for competitive shooting, emphasizing accuracy, balance, and refined handling. Chambered in .22 Long Rifle, the pistol operates on a simple blowback system and features a fixed barrel design, which contributes significantly to its exceptional inherent accuracy. The Match Target model is distinguished by its heavy, precision-machined barrel—often 6 inches in length—paired with a full-length underlug that enhances stability and reduces muzzle rise. It is equipped with fully adjustable target sights, allowing shooters to fine-tune windage and elevation for precise shot placement, and often includes a crisp, light trigger that is ideal for competition use.

The ergonomics are further enhanced by finely checkered grips, typically made of walnut or plastic, designed to provide a secure, comfortable grip during extended shooting sessions. The pistol’s sleek lines, high-polish blued finish, and meticulous fit and finish reflect Colt’s commitment to quality during this era. Widely used in bullseye competition and target shooting, the Woodsman Second Series Match Target earned a reputation for reliability and outstanding performance, rivaling other top-tier rimfire pistols of its time. Today, it is highly prized by collectors and enthusiasts for its historical significance, elegant design, and enduring reputation as one of the most accurate and beautifully crafted .22 target pistols ever produced.
