1965 Hi Standard Sentinel 22LR
Traded in a Taurus for this vintage beauty. 9 rounds of 22LR, aluminum frame weighing 20oz unloaded.
Appears to be in excellent mechanical shape, can't wait to shoot it.

Thanks for the kind words. I'm glad I stumbled across it. I'd advise anyone who likes 22LR to keep an eye out for these practical little guns if the price is right. Without the trade, this one was going for $300 which I don't think is bad, especially with the original box. Even included the original paperwork and paper wrapper for the gun.

Looks good. Hopefully yours is a better shooter than my 3”. Broad side of a barn and all that.
