The purpose of the Hi-Point 9mm is not to make everything easy, or to impress people at the range. It's not designed to compete against Glock, or s&W, or Walther, or any other handgun company. The purpose of the Hi-Point pistol is to allow someone who is really low on money to be able to get a relatively dependable pistol for self-defense. Period.

You know, I was a gun snob who denigrated Hi-Points without ever having owned, let alone, shot one. Made fun of Hi-Point owners. Then, I watched a number of videos done by Matt Carriker of Demolition Ranch, where he attempted to destroy/blowup Hi-Points with various barrel obstructions, and even after shooting them. All Matt accomplished was to demonstrate that Hi-Points can withstand an amazing amount of abuse... deliberate abuse... and keep working. That opened my mind about them, and when I saw a Hi-Point carbine for sale at amazing price, I took the plunge. After that, I picked up the Hi-Point 10mm, and when the 2nd Gen Yeet Cannon came out, well of course I had to get that one too! The only weakness I have come across with my Hi-Points is their magazines. If you've got good mags, Hi-Points will never fail you.

It’s more like comparing a Prius and a Ferrari. One car runs and will get you there but the other performs a lot better and actually holds value.

I bought a very used c9, and the frame soon cracked on the back where the pin is that holds the slide to the frame. There were also a couple of other small problems. I sent it back to Hi Point to see what they can do. They replaced the old c9 with a brand new one and transferred the serial number from my old one to the new one. They even gave me an extra mag. I was very happy with their customer service too, as the lady was very nice and helpful.

When I worked at the store in Kentucky, there were a few people that would buy these because they were cheap. I tried to steer them away from them, but usually I couldn’t sway them. Some guys were “I just want something to throw in my fishing boat”. They’re very awkward feeling. The polymer feels cheap. I’d never buy one. Having said that, their carbines work well, and couldn’t keep one in the store. I’ve had people drive 100 miles to get a carbine. If they made them glock mag compatible, they’d have a pretty good setup. They’re made in Ohio mostly. I’ve heard prisoners at Mansfield prison make some of the components, but not 100% sure on that.

About five years ago, Rural Kings had the Taurus G2C on sale with a rebate the price was $155. Over a thousand round of about anything you can imagine. Not a single malfuntion yet. Got to say, much better than a Hi-Point at the same price.

With how chunky Hi-points are, I always thought they should make one where the whole top of the slide is just 1913 rail. Mount a scope, full size rifle red dot, or IR laser...whatever you need. I honestly think people would buy it just for the giggles.

Guy's with all do respect, Hickok45's having trouble with the Hi-Point did not seem to be a problem with the gun. Maybe he did not like the gun and was trying to show that it was hard to work with. Don't get me wrong I have been following Hickok45 for years, I like him. But I have owned 4 of this Hi-Point gun and have not had a problem with any of them, not any problems.

When Demolition Ranch tortured this gun to the point of putting a round into the chamber, and the gun still fired, we decided to put a carbine on the wishlist...the pistols do not interest us (I'll be honest, the 'Yeet Cannon' does, just because it has 'Yeet Cannon' in nice big letters on the slide), but there are a lot of us satisfied with the carbines...yes, the guns a big and heavy...yes, they tend to work...yes, find brand new any better at the price...it is NOT my problem when my cheap gun rings steel right beside a very expensive gun doing the same thing, umm, the bullets cannot tell the difference...

The are not sleek, sexy, ergonomic, it's heavy, the triggers suck, the safety system is awkward BUT it shoots shockingly well in terms of accuracy, it is ridiculously rugged, eats anything you feed it, economical for those who can't afford a higher end firearm, and it goes bang every single time. It functions better than the two Glocks I had that were jam-o-matics and no longer own because of it. Do I carry a HP for EDC? Absolutely not. but at the end of the day HP has a legitimate place in the market.

I worked at a gun shop and we were a dealer for Hi-Point. We were in a poorer area, and they were easily our biggest seller. The gang rats didn't like them because their friends laughed at them, but the honest working folks who couldn't afford a Glock could at least get something they could fairly reliably defend their homes with.

Hi Point was my first firearm. I've come a long way since then, but they still make a decent "truck gun" that you can keep in your glove box and not be too concerned if it were to get stolen. Their carbines are fun. The thing is that since I bought mine a dozen years ago or so, other quality options have become available at very reasonable prices (thinking of Taurus, specifically, but there are others as well).
