Manufactured in 1947.This is one of the few thousand Woodsmans that were assembled from left over pre-war parts. In 1946, at serial number 157038, all civilian production stopped during WWII. After the war production started up again and these guns were often made with a mix of pre-war and post-war type finishes and markings. These pistols were the last of the first series Woodsman pistol. Elevation adjustable blade front and windage adjustable square notch rear sights, fully checkered grips and all blue magazine marked "COLT WOODSMAN/CAL. 22 LR" on the base. Comes with the original box featuring a "TARGET" end label, bore brush, original test target, "Shooting Suggestions" and four Woodsman brochures/pamphlets.

Excellent. The revolver retains 98% original blue finish with some mild-minor thinning on the grip straps and a couple minor scratches. The grips are excellent with crisp checkering overall. Mechanically excellent. The box is fine showing some fading and some scattered minor wear.
