i have a mitchell arms/high standard sharpshooter II. i can't find them anywhere online to get an approximate value. it's satin nickel finish with some light scratches, nothing too big. maybe %85-%90. it has walnut grips and a 5.5 inch bull barrel. the rear sight isn't like the other mitchell trophys and citations, it's mounted on the top of the slide and doesn't wrap around. it has the lightest trigger pull i've ever felt, it's almost scary. first time i shot it i wasn't ready and it scared the hell outta me. any info on this pistol would be greatly appreciated. thanks alot, cody

    mitchels have a bad rap for metal quality and tend to be slow movers. your gun is the lowest in the line but sometimes you get a good one and it can serve you for years. your gun can be bought new for 350.00. you take it from there. btw...the trigger and sights on that gun are the best in the business! enjoy it!

    thanks alot. i got for 50 bucks, so i think i did alright. it shoots great, and looks pretty good to me. thinkin of keepin it, but i just found an old basket case harley that i can't pass up. i prefer my ruger mkII, but i couldn't pass up a little 22 for 50 bucks, i'd have to get my head checked. thanks again, cody

    that hi std will out shoot your mk2 5 to 1. its designed after a 45 frame in comparison to the mk2 being designed after the luger. keep shooting it. the more you do, you will switch to it more often!
