Gentlemen,
Is it advisable to use high velocity .22LR ammo in a Hi Standard model 'B' pistol circa 1942 ? There are reports of the frame of Hi Standard Victor 107 developing a crack because of the HV ammo.

Now model 'B' being a much older model might not be safe with HV ammo or did they make it strong enough ?
best,
RP.

It's always better to have a gun and not need it than need a gun and not have it !

Wouldnt advise it.
If you do want to shoot HV sell it and get a newer pistol.

You mean if a gun blows up or worse, it should be treated as one of those 'exceptional' cases.We should ,therefore carry on,ignoring that possibilitybadshah0522 wrote:There wont be any problem,,1or 2 exceptional case can happen ,,but over all it is a strong pistol..
