Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Colt Huntsman is a post-WWII, .22 Long Rifle semi-automatic pistol. It is fed by a single stack detachable magazine. Though lesser known than some of Colt’s other products of the era, production spanned 22 years, from 1955 to 1977. Born of growing demand for a more cost-effective rimfire platform, the Huntsman saved with fixed sights and fewer options. Barrel lengths were available in either 4.5 or 6 inches.
Though built to be a more budget-friendly option, the Huntsman retains the quality blue steel and wood grips that age gracefully and catch the eye of American plinkers and collectors. The right-sided safety lever doubles as the slide release. The lack of additional controls, takedown levers, and the like adds to the sleek, modern appearance of the piece. The lines and slide are slim, as is the single stack grip frame. The magazine release is at the base of the grip and actuates by pulling back slightly. If the magazine doesn’t willingly drop free, the extra lip on the base plate allows shooters to physically assist in the removal. This example will make a perfect choice for having fun at the range or to add to any collector's collection.
