Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Colt Huntsman was introduced in 1955 as part of Colt’s second generation of Woodsman-pattern .22 LR pistols, designed to offer the same proven reliability and shooting qualities as the premium Woodsman line but in a more affordable, streamlined package. Produced until 1977, the Huntsman featured a fixed rear sight, an aluminum alloy frame on later examples, and simplified cosmetics, making it an accessible rimfire pistol for recreational shooters, small-game hunters, and those wanting Colt quality at a lower price point. Despite its budget-minded intent, the pistol retained the excellent balance and natural pointing characteristics that made the Woodsman family famous, and its 4½" or 6" barrel configurations gave shooters options for both field and target work. Over its production run, the Huntsman became known for its durability, smooth trigger pull, and dependable blowback operation—traits that appealed to both seasoned rimfire enthusiasts and new shooters alike. The model’s place in the evolution of Colt .22 pistols is significant: it represents the company’s effort to modernize materials and reduce manufacturing costs while preserving the handling excellence of earlier Woodsman designs. Today, Huntsman pistols are appreciated by collectors and shooters for their connection to Colt’s classic rimfire heritage, their practical performance, and their relatively attainable price point compared with many Woodsman variants.
