Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
In 1904 Colt introduced it's first medium frame double action target model revolver as the Colt Officer's Model. From then to 1969 Colt would produce versions of this under several names. The Officer's Model was always Colt's premium revolver until the introduction of the super-premium Python in 1955. In the days when the revolver was King of the Matches, the Officer's models were always the favorite of the champions and Colt's held all the records.
The Officer's Model Match, Fifth Issue: The Officer's Model Match was made from 1953 to 1969. Calibers were .22LR, .22 Magnum, and .38 Special. Barrel was 6" heavy tapered. The rear sight was Colt's new Accro fully adjustable model that would be used on almost all post-war Colt pistols and revolvers that used adjustable sights. The hammer was Colt's new long, wide diamond-checkered Target hammer that became famous on the Colt Python. Finish was blue, with bright nickel being rare. As a factory option, the Officer's Model Match could be special ordered in a single action-only version. Genuine factory models are rare.
