A good, solid blue collar shotgun that they sold boatloads back when Sears was a huge sporting goods/firearms supplier (biggest in U.S.?). I see them at gun shows and they strike me as a lot of gun for the buck because they are from a bygone era and not viewed as a collectible.
I seem to recall reading that Sears owned the design or at least had a contract arrangement with High Standard for manufacturing. Don't know if parts interchange between the JC20 and Flight Kings, but they are at very least first cousins.
Most that I've seen were either plain barrel or had the Powerpac (their version of the Cutts). Don't know if the Polychoke was a standard offering. Back in the 50's and 60's the polychokes and Cutts were desirable. And they work!
I have a couple High Standards of the same vintage and they function 100%. Take yours out and shoot the heck out of it!
