Looks just like the third generation (1960) I recently purchased. I have always wanted one but now that I have it I have certain reservations. Despite the thumb rest or perhaps because of it, it doesn't sit well in my hand. I was shooting today with a friend and he had the same impression. For some reason, it also shot a much wider group than the Les Baer 1911 I was also shooting. As for the Hi Standard, they are currently in production.
