Indians For Guns

timmy wrote:Those are wonderful handguns, TC. High Standard was -- well, a very high standard 22 pistol and one which did win many trophies. The new ones are quite expensive, but I have not handled one. I wonder if they come close to the old classics like yours in quality and accuracy.

The Colt Officer's Model is a beauty! Those are very near to my heart, as yours could be the daughter of mine. Mine was made in 1920 and has a front sight somewhat different from yours. Where yours has a ramp-type base, the base on my front sight is a simple rectangular block that holds the pivot pin, adjustment, and set screws.

The biggest pity about a Colt Officer's Model is that so few will ever know the sheer pleasure of shooting one. They are truly a lovely piece of art, and they combine the silky-smoothness and luxury of a precision-made watch.

Beautiful guns, thanks for sharing.
