The Police Positive (not Target) model in .22 rf were made in much larger quantities and thus are less rare. However, a nice clean Police Positive in .22 rf would be a very good deal at $359.00! The main thing to watch out for in the older Colt revolvers is the timing and lockup. The Colt mechanism was very complex and sophisticated and not many gunsmiths are still around that know how to properly repair them and the small parts (hand, bolt, springs, etc.) are starting to dry up.
