The Colt Woodsman Third Series Sport Model is a steel-frame semi-automatic rimfire pistol in .22 Long Rifle. This example, serial number 189401-S, was made in 1960 and has a 6-inch barrel, a ramped blade front sight, an adjustable rear sight, a manual thumb safety, a blued finish and checkered wood target grips. The bore is excellent. The finish shows light marks and minor wear, and the overall condition is very good.

The Woodsman is a target and small-game pistol, and the 6-inch Sport Model with adjustable sights is set up for exactly that: bullseye practice, plinking and a day in the field with rimfire ammunition. The manual thumb safety and the long barrel suit a shooter who wants a deliberate, accurate .22 rather than a pocket gun. It also draws collectors of Colt's .22 automatics, who will note the 1960 date, the Third Series features and the target grips. Handgun buyers must be 21 at the dealer, and some states add permits or waiting periods.
