High Standard Supermatic Target Pistol .22LR (Used, 80% new)
Good condition with 80% finish. Bore and Grip as per photos shown.
This pistol features a 171mm barrel with two removable barrel weights, finely adjustable rear sight and a two-stage trigger that breaks like the proverbial glass rod at 2.5 pounds with zero over-travel due to an integral screw stop system.
The High Standard Supermatic pistols were amongst the best American made .22 rimfire as evidenced by the fact that they have been the only American made pistols to win gold medals in the Olympic Rapid Fire match, first in 1952 and again in 1960
Manufactured between 1949 until 1957, the Supermatic was arguably the best target pistol of its time. Versions of this pistol could be used in ISU rapid-fire Olympic courses of fire (.22 Short caliber), as well as standard bullseye shooting. US shooters won Olympic Rapid Fire gold medals in 1952 and 1960 using High Standard pistols, the only gold medals ever won in this event with an American made pistol.
The fit and finish of the Supermatic surely makes one yearn for the good old days. All parts are made from milled forgings except for the pressed-steel slide catch, thumb safety lever and the magazine tube. The finish is a high quality polished blue on the barrel and slide, with matte sand-blasted upper surfaces and rear of the slide to cut glare along the sighting plane. The receiver is also finished in matte blue and both front and rear straps have fine serrations for a solid grip.
