I have only heard of them. They are fairly rare. They were a limited production. I don' know the quantities. You can get Colt to research it for you, for a fee. they will tell you what retailer ordered the gun, and when it was built.
By any chance would anyone that knows alot about Colts would answer my question for me. I have a Colt Match Target and what I would like to know what is the manufacturing date to the serial number 032695S, i have been looking online for it but just no luck, Thanks

Thank you
If its the pistol I'm thinking of, its not that rare. The Colt Woodsman Match Target was a first-line target .22 that was pre-eminent along the firing line in Bullseye Competition. It competed with the high Standard target pistols of the day, alongside the Colt and Smith & Wesson target revolvers.
It was also the basis of the .22 Askins Centerfire, which was later banned from Centerfire matches.
I saw one recently in the used gun case going for around $600, if memory serves me correctly.
