High Standard 9-shot revolver, .22 mag
Back in the day (late '70s), I bought a High Standard 22 magnum revolver, with an interchangeable .22 LR cylinder, that was built on a heavier, .38 frame. It had a 4", shrouded barrel, double action, and held 9 rounds, looked kinda like a Colt Diamondback or Python. I sold it years ago, and now can't find any reference to the guns on the web.
Anyone know what model number(s) these guns were, and if they're still being made?

Dan Wesson made a number of revolvers for High Standard in the mid 70's, ( Sentinel Mark II & Mark III ) I thought they were all .357's. Perhaps they made some .22's also?

That's it! It was a High Standard Sentinal, never knew they were made by Dan Wesson though.

the gun i believe you are refering to is the sentinel MK-IV or the hi standard camp gun. the camp gun was made in 76 to 81. the MK-IV was made from 74 to 81. of the two, the MK-IV looks most like a wesson. did your gun have adj sights or fixed?

Yep, it's all coming back to me now, it was also called a camp gun. I believe it had adjustable sights, but wouldn't swear to it.
It was a really neat gun, although had a horrible DA pull that I'd planned to get re-worked and never did.
Thanks again.0
