SC - my LGS with a great selection of Colts has a Colt Challenger in the display case, for sale. I can send you a link, if you’re interested.

The Colt Challenger was an economy version of the Woodsman (a non-adjustable rear sight, for example), made from 1950 to 1955. These pistols came from the factory wearing brown-colored plastic grips. Apparently, an early owner of my pistol replaced those grips with something a bit fancier.

Ah, I see.
The Link VictimNoMore sent me is VERY tempting. It's a Challenger. But I really can't tell it from the Woodsman. We'll see if I have a Colt Challenger in my collection soon.
Younger folks today don't seem to care much for these wonderful older pistols. Which is a plus for me.
