Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Colt Woodsman is a semi-automatic pistol designed by John Moses Browning and manufactured by Colt's Manufacturing Company in the United States. It was produced between 1915 and 1977, and during this time, its frame design changed over three distinct series. The first series was manufactured between 1915 and 1941, the second between 1947 and 1955, and the third between 1955 and 1977. Browning originally designed the Woodsman with a short slide, no grip safety, and no hammer, as these features were not necessary for a handgun intended for target use. The gun was later refined by gunsmiths and designers at Colt's before its introduction in 1915. 

There were three models of the Colt Woodsman in each series: Target, Sport, and Match Target. The Match Target Model was introduced in 1938 and featured a heavier barrel with a one-piece wrap-around grip known as the "elephant ear." The slide had a "Bullseye" icon, hence the nickname "Bullseye Match Target".
