Default The U.S.A. Model H-D pistol

I thought you'd like to see this pic of an original High Standard U.S.A. H-D pistol, together with its original instruction sheet. This gun and others like it were made for the armed services during World War II for inexpensive target practice. Like the 1911 .45 pistols, it had fixed sights and a hammer. Some were equipped with sound suppressors and issued to the O.S.S. during the war. This one was made in October of 1944.
