| Two companies make Victor-style pistols based on the High Standard designs. In 1993 Mitchell Arms began making pistols patterned on the original High Standard blueprints,
and during that and the following year actually labeled them as High Standard pistols, using the same model designations as the originals as well. At the same time, High
Standard Mfg. Co., Inc., was reformed and relocated in Houston, Texas, with many of the original employees from Connecticut. There followed some litigation regarding the
rights to the High Standard name and trademark. Because most of the original patents now are in the public domain, that factor was not a part of the dispute. These matters are
now settled and Mitchell continues to make its version of the pistols, but without the High Standard name rollmarked into them. Their various model designations remain the
same, but with the Roman numeral II following.
