I can't cross-reference this to a particular model, but it was made by High Standard. High Standard was established in 1926 and Sears Roebuck dropped the Higgins line of sporting goods in 1961. That narrows it down to a 35 year period. That model was late enough that it probably had an assembly date code on the barrel just forward of the reciever. http://www.histandard.info/datapublic/serial/HIGH%20STANDARD%20DATE%20CODE.pdf

If it marked JC Higgins, that Is a Savage model 96 made for Sears. If it does not have a serial number, it was made before 1968,
High Standard between 1955 and 1958, after that year they began selling the newer model 66.
