    Rob, I have the JC Higgens version, a Model 60, built by High Standard.

    FIL gave it to me 20 years ago. It had a 28" or 30" barrel, a bit of hunting wear and tear, but mechanically perfect.

    When I lived in Texas, I had it cut to 24" and threaded for chokes (Colonial, I think).

    Shoots anything, no issues. A great gun for close-in upland birds, though I also use a BPS in 20ga with a 22" barrel...about a pound lighter than the High Standard.

    You've got a great gun.
