From the Vault: Standard Mfg. Woodsman .22 Pistol
This "From the Vault" video from Brownells Gun Tech™ Keith Ford showcases the new Standard Manufacturing Woodsman .22 pistol. Ford, a known enthusiast of .22 semi-automatic pistols and particularly the original Colt Woodsman designed by John Browning, expresses his excitement for this new offering. He highlights that the original Woodsman, discontinued in 1977, was a high-quality, precisely fitted firearm that was never cheap and never had a direct replacement. Ford, having tested this brand-new Standard Woodsman (Serial #2), confirms it is exceptionally well-made and shoots just as well as an original Colt Woodsman. The video positions this new model as an accessible way to experience the quality, accuracy, handling, and mystique of the original Woodsman without the collector's price tag. Ford emphasizes the thorough range testing he conducted to validate its performance.
