Colt Woodsman .22 Cal. Pistol Question

[BigBoy1]

I had a customer bring to me a Colt Woodsman .22 Cal. Pistol. My question is, what is the tread on the barrel. I need to remove the barrel but don't know if the thread on the barrel is right or left handed. I don't want to start torquing on the barrel only to discover I'm trying to tighten it instead of removing it. Thanks.

According to those guys, post war barrels have LH threads.

Notice there's no note on pre war barrels.

Thanks for the info. At least I now will be turning the barrel in the correct direction!
