Hi-Point firearms ?

They just work, and work, and work, and work, and work and...

Demolition Ranch tortured a bunch of High Point pistols. Filled their barrels will everything imaginable and then fired them. All kept going.

The most impressive part was when he literally shot the Hi-Point with another gun and it continued to function afterwards, despite the slide being all messed up.

Granted, for all we know, other guns would function just as well if they were shot by another gun, but the fact that the Hi-Point's slide is made of ZAMAK would still make it all the more impressive.

I understand they are cheap and reliable and they never break down. I also understand they are the choice of, let's say, some unreliable people. THAT's the reason I would never own one.

Buy a few less cartons of cigs or beer and the money you save will buy you a S&W. And then you won't look like just another gang member.

No self respecting gang banger would own one.

Trust me, life's even shorter if you own nothing but pretty guns...

Because you're liable to have a heart attack if you happen to put so much as a tiny scratch on one of them.

I've owned two Hi-Points. A 9mm pistol that I put a couple thousand rounds through before I got bored with it and sold it for what I paid for it. I had a total of four malfunctions during that time. All four out of one box of "range reloads." With factory ammo it just chugged along. Hit what I was shooting at too.

I also had a 9mm carbine for a short time. I know I took it to the range once with no problems, but I'm just not a rifle guy no matter how often I try. I sold it.

I have 2 of the older carbines. The ones with the solid stock. We around here call them "monkey guns" because they were used in one of the big movies. I think it was Planet of the Apes but could have been another one. Mine run great. Dont think I've ever had a misfeed. Fairly accurate especially for a $250 gun Will easily shoot a 1" group at 25 yards and we have a torso size steel silhouette at 100 yards that is a piece of cake to hit with every shot. Wish they came with mags that hold more than 10 rounds, but you can get 20 round aftermarket mags. The older ones didn't come with sights and mine have cheap red dots but are fun to play around with. Ironically, the most accurate ammo in both of mine is TulAmmo Steel Case 115gr. Cheapest gun with cheapest ammo. Hope to find a 45acp soon.

I bought the 45acp model a few years back as a "range gun" for fun. I like it, but kinda wish I had bought the 10mm though.
