Shooting the Colt pre-Woodsman 22lr pistol

[triggerhappynumskull]

ITS CUTE! I WANT IT!! but im in the uk ): well time to look for another loophole

[O15Omnicron]

Ah .22's, well i see them as a blessing and a curse. Quiet as a mouse with a supressor, but might as well make eyeshots your M.O. (:

[kolemijn]

This gun looks so nice.

[shawn4201111]

[agentkapser]

[mikethenascarfan]

it reminds me of a ruger mark 1- i like it- are they rare?

[Spookiez01]

Kinda reminds me of Jango Fett's Blaster :L

[hammerogod]

Another John Browning masterpiece.

That is the handgun I learned to shoot with.

People ask how accurate they were...well...I could drive a nail with a series 2 Match Target.

I think anyone could with practice.

I remember putting 7 shots through the same hole from 25 ft.

I am not really a great shot but the gun was so well balanced and accurate that it made any shooter look better.

They are getting very hard to find.

If you are looking for one try to get the 6⅝ inch barrel if you can.

[An0nEeMouse]

[wyatt1941]

[Hoodhitta]

i mean shit it looks like its fucking accurate as fuck .

[elliotberg]

is it just me or did the barrel look a little bent?

[Hoodhitta]

@elliotberg

nah its just the way he was holding it

I own a pre WWII woodsmen target series and it is a very accurate pistol.

At 100 yards you can experience 12-24 inch groups, at 150-200yards the .22cal round begins to show it's weaknesses. Although rounds almost always land on a torso sized target at 200 yards

I prefer cci standard velocity

Excellent pistol.

[TheEvilX338]

I've heard these are very accurate... How accurate is it?

[LifeSizePotato]

@TheEvilX338 Mine is very accurate and one of my favorite guns to shoot. One of my favorite plinking targets with it is a plastic soda bottle cap, which I can hit consistently from about 10 yards. The sights are easy to be very precise with.

[MrTheAngelofDeath666]

@LifeSizePotato Based on all of this, would you recommend it as a good first handgun to buy? I've shot several pistols and revolvers of various calibers, but now the question is what gun I should dip my feet into handgun ownership with.

[LifeSizePotato]

@MrTheAngelofDeath666 I would recommend a Woodsman or pre-Woodsman like this one without hesitation. They are superb shooters. Be sure to not get ripped off, though. A lot of dealers think that since they're old and they're Colts, they should be really expensive. Watch Gunbroker for current values and don't pay too much.

[ShaneFrakes]

@LifeSizePotato Thanks for the videos. There are quite a few guns that I haven't seen before that you posted.

[mrtlsimon]

I like that you have guns that are not seen much,and they are classics.I would like to thank you for your time and ask that you show the target so we can see the accuracy of the pistol.

LifeSizePotato ~ Good video and enjoyed it, but . . . why so short? You can show what the gun looks (different sides, top & bottom, magazine, etc.) like and maybe a little history. How it’s loaded and show what ammo is used in whatever gun you’re shooting. Just a suggestion after seeing a few of of your videos. Keep up the good work and try to add to each video if you can.

[LifeSizePotato]

@cal10mag I know. I would have liked to do longer videos showing different angles, reloading, etc. These are short because I had limited camera battery, it was a hot day and pretty uncomfortable out, and because the shooter had some other things to do and his time was limited, so we tried to do them quickly. I do hope to make some longer shooting videos in the future! In the meantime, I've done longer review videos on a lot of the guns in the shooting videos. Thanks for watching!

[DZA720]

@cal10mag do not expect every user to be hickok45

[LifeSizePotato]

@DZA720 Yeah, I have no intention of doing Hickok style videos, even though I love his channel. To be honest, I'd like my shooting videos to be similar to DrakeGmbH's: clear, direct and simple, and without the noisy backdrop of a gun range. The next time I get a chance to do shooting videos, I hope to do a few more rounds through each gun, and also show the loading procedure and any other quirks with shooting them.
