 HSCA Summer newsletter


The 2023 Summer issue of the HSCA newsletter was mailed this week.  I have already received mine in the mail!  The publisher did a miraculous job. I hope you enjoy her work.

If you want a bigger or better newsletter, make it happen. I have received complaints that it does not arrive in a timely manner.  My three reasons: 

1) If I do not have enough material to print and justify cost of postage I don't! So, if you want more in your newsletter submit articles on a High Standard topic to: Nightdoc@aol.com. I am the acting editor. I do not do research. I print articles that are submitted. 

1a) Consider doing a better job than I do by publishing one of the quarterly issues. I am willing to help you.

2) USPS does its best too, but when you have not updated your contact information they cannot make delivery.  

3) If you have not paid your 2023 annual dues you should not be receiving the newsletter anyway!

Please remember that there is a NORTHWEST REGION High Standard club meeting and show the last weekend in August.  It is in Oregon. Contact Jerry Watson for specifics. WATSONLJ500@MSN.COM.

If you missed the annual HSCA meeting at the OGCA shame on you. There were great HSCA displays as shown in the newsletter. LOTS of High Standards on sale tables. One experienced member reportedly bought 8 firearms! Even John Stimson made an appearance on Saturday. He and Steve Schrott are, in my opinion, the best resources of information on High Standards. 

If you are a paid-up member and have not received a Spring or Summer 2023 newsletter, contact Nightdoc@aol.com. I do my best to contact members if a mailing is returned to me. (See item 2) above.

"THE BOOK" HIGH STANDARD 1932-1984 CONNECTICUT is with the editor and almost ready for publication. Steve Schrott is confident that he will have 50 copies to sell at the Tulsa show in November.  Four of the authors will also be there to answer your questions.

Members should feel free to share your High Standard experiences on this Blog.
