First of all I would like to say hello to all of the fellow TFL members as I am new here and have been reading the posts here for a while and am very impressed with this site. There are a great bunch of folks here and the interest shown in the love of firearms and shooting sports is outstanding. Now, to the question I have concerning a shotgun I've recently aquired. I have in my possesion a High Standard "Field Classic" pump shotgun. It looks very much like the Flite King version although it does not have the vent rib. I believe it is a modified choke barrell as there are two stars on the barrell shank near the reciever. Ingraved on the barrell are the words Field Classic. The furniture is beautiful walnut and the only plastic on the gun is the buttcap below the pistol grip portion of the stock annd the white spacer and recoil pad. I took the gun out and fired it this morning and cycled some 2 3/4 turkey loads and some field loads and was very impressed with the way the gun handled and the recoil seemed very manageable with the high brass loads. I'm very happy with this gun but am curious as to about when it was made and if any one else has any pros or cons on this gun? Thank you for any information.
