Introduced in 1945. Blade and notch sights, heavy barrel and serrated slide with model markings on the left side. The left side of the frame is marked "MADE IN U.S.A./ THE HIGH STANDARD MFG. CO/ NEW HAVEN, CONN./ PATENT PENDING/ .22 CAL./ LONG RIFLE", and the right "PROPERTY OF/ U.S." over the ordnance cartouche. "PROPERTY OF U.S.A." on the barrel. Serrated trigger, checkered grips.

Excellent, with 95% of the original blue finish, showing light spotting and handling marks overall, along with a mixed blue/brown patina starting on the grip straps. Grips are excellent, with a few mild pressure dents. Action is excellent.
