Description
Up for auction is a classic Hi-Standard Model B semi-automatic pistol chambered in .22 Long Rifle, featuring a 4.5" barrel and blued finish. Manufactured by the historic High Standard Manufacturing Company, the Model B is one of the company’s most recognized early rimfire pistol designs, valued for its quality craftsmanship, reliability, and sleek vintage styling.
Originally produced during the 1930s and 1940s, the Hi-Standard Model B became popular among recreational shooters, outdoorsmen, and target enthusiasts due to its dependable blowback operation and excellent handling characteristics. The shorter 4.5" barrel configuration provides a compact and well-balanced feel while still delivering the accuracy that Hi-Standard pistols are known for.
Features include:
This pistol shows honest vintage wear consistent with age and use. The blued finish exhibits handling marks, light edge wear, and areas of finish thinning typical of an older collectible rimfire firearm. Grips remain in good overall condition and complement the pistol’s classic appearance nicely. Bore condition, magazine condition, markings, and overall mechanical function should be carefully reviewed by prospective bidders using the provided photographs.
Hi-Standard pistols from this era remain highly collectible due to their innovative design, excellent accuracy, and important role in the development of American target pistols. The Model B continues to attract collectors and shooters seeking a dependable and historically significant rimfire handgun.
