I have heard nothing but good things about Armscor shotguns. High Standard was once owned by Sears and they made J. C. Higgins shotguns. I have a 1947 J. C. Higgins model 20 that was made in 1947 and it still shoots perfectly. I had planned on buying a M5 pump shotgun from Armscor but I stumbled across my old shotgun in a trade. I have about $20 or so in it after the trading (cars, shotgun, ammo) concluded. The old J. C. Higgins shotguns have very little value but it being made the year I was born makes it sorta special to me.
