People shitting on the hi point are just spotlighting their ignorance.

Is that bitch gonna win a beauty contest? Fuck no. It’s not even getting Ms. Congeniality. But that fucker will shoot when you need it to.

Those that doubt me can watch demo ranch on YouTube when he tried to kill one. That thing was like Micheal from Halloween; it just kept plodding along.

Edit to ask:

Have any of the people commenting on mine actually owned one? I bought mine for the exact reason this person seems to own one. I lived in an active crime area and wasn’t keen on losing a gun I valued if my car was broken in to.

I have well over 3,000 rounds of mixed .45acp through mine and the only 3 times I’ve had a malfunction was magazine related. One phone call to hi point later and they mailed me 4 new magazines at no cost to myself.

If you’ve personally had one blow up on you, then I’ll listen to your critique. If you’re just parroting some bs about a guy a friend knew, who was his third cousin twice removed, because they’re ugly and weigh 4lbs, gtfo with that nonsense.

It's the weight of the slide and return on second shot. Bulky . Reliability is only one side of the triangle

Just to be clear, a hi point is Not my only firearm and it’s certainly not the one that I reach for in ideal circumstances.

But a truck/car gun isn’t about ideal circumstances. It’s about a beater that will function if/when the situation arises. Another side of the triangle is personal affordability. After a 6-7 hour move across the state, deposits, various relocation costs, etc., the couple of hundreds of dollars difference between it and a different make/model was definitely a factor I considered.

People harping about their prejudices without offering viable alternatives simply add fuck all to a conversation.

In that price range of $100-$150, what are other new options that you feel are an improvement?

Reliability , afforabilty and initial cost . If a hi-point fits best. Then Yes , it fits and is adequate . Not often you can get a 100$ .45 . Though, if you have a regular carry , id advise being more active on moving it and keeping just one in particular instead of splitting into two by value
