Does anybody know anything about the Hi-point firearms 45. cal pistol ? are they good pistols of a P.O.S ???

I've never owned one, cpt., but what I've read and heard about them has been pretty much negative. Apparently they are often plagued with FTF and FTE difficulties.

Sorry to say I have one that found it's way back home.I bought it out of
curiosity and it sucked so I gave it to my father who just died few months
ago so it found it's way back to my house!I will try to trade it for some
ammo or something it fire every time but it has no style.I see Hi points
a gun for some one who has little money or someone who plans on using
it for a stick up then throwing it away.

California has required this manufactor to discontinue making arms. Do not pass go-do not collect $200.00

Cpt just keep in mind you get what you pay for.

its heavy
its ugly
its balance sucks
its anti-ergonomic
finish is sub-par
reputation is poor
value is nil

having said that, they are fairly reliable, feed and cycle almost any ammo, and almost never jam...

JMHO.

best regards, mike.
