Just inherited my Grandpa's High Standard Supermatic Deluxe Model-C1200. I am having a hard time coming up with any information about this gun, ie age, popularity, uses in it's era, estimated value.
Have tried to find some information via Google, but most of what I am finding are parts for sale on auction sites and some PDF's of manuals that don't give much description.
This gun, near as I can tell, is older than I, at 22. I would love to find out more info on this gun. It is in 95% condition I would say. A small ding in the butt stock, and a few scratches in the forestock. From what my dad and mom tell me, my grandpa used it a handful of times to shoot skeet/trap and has been kept in my dads safe until now. My dad shot it a handful of times and promply cleaned it after each use. I plan to shoot it a few times to get familiar with the gun and then clean and store it.
Looking for any insight some of you may have.
Thank you.
