Hello to all of the High Standard Collectors and shooters.
Russ and I would like to thank you all for your continued support
these last four and half years. A lot has been going on for us here.
We have built four 10X's for three youth shooting teams here in
Montana. Two teams went to Colorado Springs last year with the guns we
built and placed first and then they went to Nebraska for their
national matches and placed first along with a Camp Perry style match
which they took first place as well. We continue to attend gun shows
here in Montana and getting the name out there.
In 2019 ND 2020, we applied for and received all of the High Standard
trademarks, including the trigger logo. We have built a few
presentation blonde boxes with the Supermatic Trophies with extra
barrels for a few customers.
We have a few Bob Shea commemorative guns still available and we have
a few of the Jim Gray Commemorative guns available as well.
Some of you may not know, but we build all of our own parts, frames,
and barrels. There are some things we have to outsource such as
springs and grips. Our grips are built by Herrett stocks. They do a
wonderful job!
Russ continues to improve on the machining and is always looking at
better ways to do the job. He writes programs for the CNC machinery
and produces some amazing stuff. I won't give away all of his secrets
though!
Some of you may not know, but we brought back the Sport King as an
entry level gun. Your choice of 4.5 or 6.75 in barrel and fixed
sights. It has been quite the attraction for those who want an all
steel gun but don't necessarily need a target pistol.
We have been quite busy with repairs from customers all over the
country. It keeps us very busy for just 2 guys who want to build a
quality target pistol and support the shooting and collecting world.
I have heard that we are hard to get a hold of at times. If you have
a hard time reaching us by phone, please text or email us.
As with any fledging company, we are striving to do our best to
uphold the High Standard brand. Wait times might get long, but we do
stand behind our work and our word. Please remember, we are just two
guys doing this and we do want quality first. we know our website does
leave something to be desired, but we will at some point get a good
one going.
We always welcome comments and advice from you all. Thank you for your support!

Thank you again,
Russ and Bob
