Our Assessment: The High Standard Supermatic Trophy is one of the finest .22 target pistols ever produced, known for its exceptional accuracy, smooth trigger, and high-quality construction. The 107 Military series was designed to mimic the grip angle and feel of the U.S. military’s M1911, making it an ideal training pistol for competitive shooters transitioning to centerfire handguns.

This particular example has a heavy barrel drilled and tapped for additional weights, further enhancing stability for precision shooting. The custom large wood grips with a thumb shelf provide added control, making it a fantastic choice for competitive bullseye shooting, precision target shooting, or even recreational plinking.

For collectors and shooting enthusiasts, this Supermatic Trophy is a prime example of High Standard’s legacy in target pistols. Its excellent condition, crisp trigger, and frame-mounted adjustable sights make it a top-tier option for those who appreciate fine American-made rimfire pistols.
