Manufacturer’s Description

The High Standard M1911 is a 1911-style pistol built on a carbon steel frame with a steel slide, and chambered in .45 ACP or .38 Super. Other features include:

• A precision-fitted frame and slide;

  

• a lowered and flared ejection port;
• a beveled magazine well;
• checkered walnut grips;
• fixed, GI-style sights;
• a flat, serrated mainspring housing; and
• a parkerized finish.

High Standard builds these guns at its Texas plant, but it also offered a very similar 1911 called the GI 1911. Armscor built that gun in the Philippines, and High Standard and Lipsey’s sold it through Lipsey’s as a Lipsey’s Exclusive. Note: The GI 1911 costs less than the M1911.
