History: The Model 20 was manufactured by High Standard Arms under contract for Sears & Robuck. J.C. Higgins was Sears firearms line. It was very common in the first half of the 20th century for large retail outfits like Sears, Woolworths, Great Western and others to have firearms manufactured by American gun companies and then sell them under them under their own line. Typically these contract guns were no-frills and therefore more affordable, but quality didn't suffer. The Model 20 was basically a field grade High Standard Flite King Shotgun. J.C. Higgins was actually a long-term employee of Sears who passed away in 1950.The J.C. Higgins Model 21 "Ted Williams" Deluxe was essentially the same shotgun. The only real difference was cosmetic and therefore a higher price tag.
