Anyone have any info on High Standard 1911 compact .45

[bripro]

I got a call from one of my shops that had me on the list for a short barelled used 1911. They just got this in as a trade and it is selling for 425. I know nothing about this company. Any ifo appreciated. Thanks.

Unless something has changed in the last few years, they are made by ARMSCOR in the Phillipines.

I had a Rock Island compact, made by ARMSCOR, and after some feedramp polishing, it was a decent gun, not great, and not 100%, also not a target gun by any means, but that is to be expected from a compact with a low price tag.

If the High Standard is the same thing, it should be OK, but not for that price, I see Phillipine 1911's at shows for $350ish all the time and there is a new on on gunbroker right now for $465, http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/Vie...Item=161576079
