Has anyone bought a very recent High Standard HS22? They look just like The Victor, but now call it a HS22. How's the quality and accuracy? Same frame / grips / grip angle as the older ones? Would you put it up against something like a S&W 41? For $1100 it better be pretty darn good, that's for sure. They are built on an "as ordered" basis. You pay for it, then they build it. Takes 8 to 12 weeks to finish.

Reason I ask, I bought a used High Standard Citation a few weeks ago, and really like it, and shoot well with it so far. This HS22 should be a couple steps up, I would hope.

Thanks.
 
For that money I'd look for a well-cared-for real one; a Hamden (prefered) or East Hartford. The originals won't lose their value and will probably be better made. $1,100 will get you into a very nice one.
 
I had no idea HS was even still in business.

They aren't still in business, well, at least the as the original company.
The HS that was famous for outstanding target pistols went belly up in 1984, the new company is not connected to them in any way.
