Yes I will

Always good.

👍🐿👍nice squirrel gun

Haven't had time to watch it yet thanks

I've owned one and as long as it's clean it ran fine. Damn thing is just heavy un unreasonably big especially for just 45. That being said it's better than nothing

they tend to do that

We're they ever known to be unreliable? Blowback guns tend to be very reliable

@@okgroomer1966 they had very crappy magazines early on. they have gotten way better since. reliability wise that is, round count still needs improving,

@@thatguybrody4819 The aftermarket mags are awful, at least in my experience. Never had problems with factory mags in Hi Points.

I feel your pain there, though with me, it's freakin' 9mm sockets I'm always losing! D:

With me it’s the 3/8 and 7/16

17mm for me

Relatable

Especially those damn 10mm deep well sockets!

The only issue I've had is aftermarket mags. That's an easy fix.

I think the HP and Glock are similar in looks 😆

Dependable and weigh enough to use as a battle ax if you run out of ammo !

A burglar won't notice how they look .

All jokes aside I’m glad that Hi-Point is getting better in quality while maintaining that low price so everyone can defend themself

It's probably way more than two.

He traded a stick of gum and three paper clips for them

@Brandon Munn plus, they've always been durable, if anything. Matt's torture test was very impressive for a gun of the price.

​@@joshuastubbs1930 They're pot metal. They're definitely not durable vs other pistols. Any pistol would have survived that test. Do some research

They are uly as hell, heavy and have terrible triggers, but seem to be reliable and fairly accurate. I picked up a 45acp for something like $100 years ago, just to see what they are all about. I didn't keep it long, but never had a jam across many boxes of cheap ammo. I think it's good that the market has an option for people who can't spend $900+ on a handgun.

I would make the joke that yours, since it's functional, was actually a factory defect. But I've never even touched one, so I'm just jumping on the meme of them being shitty. Zero personal experience.

I had a hi-point 9mm carbine that wouldn’t run a full mag without jamming. To hi- points credit they bought the gun back from me.

@@user-ef4gf7rr9r me n my dad have had 5-6 and they've all worked 100%. The internet's opinion isn't always based on fact

@@user-ef4gf7rr9r naw they work and will work.... can't say I want one really but hey better than nothing? maybe one for the house if you're poor? idk

Hope you did get one. I preordered one immediately after they were unveiled at Shot Show 2023, and I have not looked back. After nearly 1,000 rounds, it still runs like a beast. Looks pretty good, too. Always have people asking me about it when they see me carrying it in public. Folks LOVE seeing a huge fkn hand cannon and talking about it.

@@ThatGuySalrokayou may have convinced me to grab one, been procrastinating forever. For the $ especially they are decent guns.

@@deborahchesser7375 I wholeheartedly recommend these things to anyone who wants a lot of bang for a little money. Yes, they are big and heavy... but where else will you find a 10mm with an underbarrel picatinny, cut section for red dots, and threaded barrel... all for around the $200 mark? Closest competitor is more than triple that price, you know? And even better? They're legal to hunt with in most states if you're feeling bold, thanks to the barrel being just over 5-in long.

@@TexanWayBoy As far as Hi-Point? They only have the one. The JXP-10. I got mine with the threaded barrel so that I could legally hunt with it. As far as other companies? I haven't owned any 10mm stuff from them.

I love the carbines. Accurate and they use pistol mags.

Eather did he

We should have him tested. A little too much molded nacho cheese.

I didn't think I would see a Hi-Point not jam... my mind is blown

@@1stSgtSoulStealer Naa that i'll be the Hi-point that gets blown (up)

you could even say that it was... the high point of the video 🥁

fixed barrel design hence they shoot straight by default! - And that huge 'cast iron' slide mitigates recoil. only other gun in that design is a makarov and much smaller, and snappier, and shoots 9x18. So slightly hotter than a 380. one of my favorite carry pieces.

Same. Dead nuts reliable too.

@@timetraveler1973 lol that's not the only other gun with a fixed barrel design. Beretta M9, for starters... lol

i'll buy Hi point for home defense, smart choice isnt?) powerfull and cheap

@@johndoe7270 I have the 995TS. over 1000 rounds through it and not one single jam. It came from the factory with the iron sights dead on at 50yards. If you get one, look into Hi Toper Armory. They make a great conversion stock that I purchased and installed. It converts it to a bulpup.

@@maddogg1432 You can get a PSA Dagger for $300...

@@obsidianet exactly lol. I’ll take a dagger over any hi-point every day of the week. Plus PSA has a good warranty too.

Not steel, pot metal.

My cabbages!

Hahaha 🤣🤣🤣

There really isn't much to master. Just keep adding weight until it works.

Just to nitpick, it’s not really to “prevent the gasses blowing backward” It’s to delay opening until gas pressure is low enough to not blow the case head off. 9mm peak chamber pressure is pushing the case head backwards with about 2 metric tons of force. Which is equivalent to the tensile strength of 0.5 square inches of solid brass

@@thomasa5619 interesting information. Thanks for sharing

Decent but very reliable? Naw bruh it definitely fired 80 percent of the time the dam mag was the issue had to file it down

sorry I shot a 45 hi point a buddy of mine bought. Least accurate thing we ever shot. Jammed a few times also. I wouldn't give you a nickel for one.

Glock for carry, HP for shooting.

@@xzqzq makes zero sense. So you shoot the crap gun why? You carry for a reason. You need to know that gun like it's your own child. F the HP. It serves no purpose other than a boat anchor.

@@chrism6195 Have you shot one ? I prefer my HP to my 1911...added weight makes second & third shot much faster. To get comparable performance, would need a long-slide, compensated 1911, at @ 5 times the cost.

At a fraction of the price!

@@whoshotashleybabbitt4924 You got that right, you can get a 6 pack of Hi Points for the cost of one Kimber and never have to worry if they are going to work.

And better yet. When you run out of ammo they make great projectiles.

Hi-Point the greatest gun in history 😎

no kidding, how has HK not made a USP in 10mm. It would be the perfect freaking gun

dunno why you gun nuts bother 10 mm vs..... 11.43mm yup, the .45 is BIGGER lol

​@@harleyme3163Everyone knows bigger is better!

10 mm has more velocity

Agreed 100%

Would a flintlock techinally be a hand cannon?

Yesa

If you're considering a hi-point, just get a sccy instead.

No gun vs. a Hi-Point Just give me the gun

Depends What type of concrete the cinder block is made out of. Not all sender blocks or concrete are the same.

Some 255gr Underwood hardcast .45acp+p would vary a lot from some 185gr hollowpoint.

Correction... It's not science unless the results are repeatable, you can write anything you want and call it science but unless some one else can do it exactly the same and get the same results then it is not science.. eg. The time someone desided to try to prove the theory of creation by determining the age of the earth based on sedement deposit at a set rate of deposit at a single location over a time frame, he concluded that the earth was something like a couple "HUNDRED" years old... Ya his "SCIENCE" experiment said the earth came into existance somewhere around the time the USA declared independance and "NOTHING" existed before that... True story... Results are scientifically "BOGUS!"

@@jackn2236 Pretty sure he used "science" in a tongue-in-cheek way, or as a parody. A proper context would have been the use of the word _physics._

Any kind of recording if accurate counts!

Oh god, please say there is video of James shooting it. I can imagine his face twisted in disgust! Lol

@@whoshotashleybabbitt4924Yes, he's shooting it a bit: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ibSgZdWiv9TahZc.html

I also use my highpoint in gun fights regularly, weapon of choice.

I got a hi point c9 I paid $80 for... Works great. Hoping i'll find a 10mm for even close to that in a few years..

It was pretty rad though.

hes ambidexter, i think

We’ll they have put a lot more research to fix the problem. I say they should go after a little more expensive market and actually make something that can compete with other budget brands like CANIK and Taurus

About 98% of all complaints of hi points comes from the magazines, which for whatever reason the company has been slow to improve...the straight blowback design is inherently simple and reliable, although heavy...we have a new 995 that we are already liking, after years of debating whether to buy a hi point or not...now i'm ordering a couple extra magazines, so I guess we'll keep it...

You bet. Think as Hi-Point like the flat screen that is still bulky and blocky sold today. It'll definitely work for people who need one, no questions asked

Nah, they are ugly, bad capacity, way too heavy & made out of crap materials. I don't think they deny that & they aren't really trying to cater to us gun guys. What they do succeed in is being reasonably reliable. If you aren't into guns but want something for home defense, Hi-Point is vastly better than nothing.

@@TheeabdielCanik and Taurus should no longer be put in the same category. Canik guns are now in the $500-$700. They are just as well put together as Glocks and Sigs. Hi-Points issues mostly stem from their crappy magazines.

You should get the Magnum Research new 10 mm 1911. Was made by Bul Armory in Israel. Best 10 mm ever built. I'm very happy with mine. Awesome gun.

“Which is the best firearm for you?” “The one you can afford”

I've never once meet a person who couldn't afford a gun that had one better than me...

300.00 for a high point is a joke. You can buy them all day on gunbroker and similar sight. Honestly they're extremely reiable;, but clearly wouldnt be my daily carry for obvious reasons lol

I have a Hi-Point carbine and it has run perfectly fine. It cost all of $315 and had fewer malfunctions than my AR that cost 2 1/2 times as much. The real downside is the low 10-round capacity and the horrible disassembly process. That's something that won't outweigh the low price.

For a pistol in that caliber, a Ruger Security 380 is a far better buy and worth the extra money. It's more compact, has better ergonomics, better finish, is a major brand and has more round capacity. Hi Points look like someone made a gun from diecast pot metal and the grip of a child's toy pistol lol. Those tribal people in Pakistan make firearms that have a far higher quality finish than Hi Point has or even some KelTec guns. I even seen a anti-2A hit piece about some villagers in the Philippines who make clone 1911s from scrap metal that make Hi Points look like utter trash 😂.

Unless the tool is made in China.

I have done so much for so long with so little, I can do anything with nothing.

Except for Trudeau, that tool is fully deserving of blame

ive shot the 45 and 9mm and 380. the 45 was flawless. the 9mm was old and used but coule USUALLY get through a mag without an issue. the 380...... i dont think it had enough umph .. and would jam a lot...... so 10mm i expect would be pretty damn good considering frame is same as a 45. and that never gave me issue. hes tempted me too.

@@timetraveler1973 try polishing your feed ramps. that is the most common issue with hi points

😂, I’m glad it worked for you, but “best pistol out there”…that’s a slight stretch

@HOG8541 I think that depends on how you define best. Is it most reliable? Clearly not. Is it most durable? No again. Is it the best looking? I think so, but I'm an aesthetic masochistic. Is it the best at fulfilling the the natural right to self defence for as many humans as possible? Maybe so. Throughout history it was rare for a military to supply soldiers with the best possible weapon because that is an impractical goal. Typically, soldiers received the most cost efficient, easily produced, and simplest to learn weapon that still functioned in a modern military setting. Of course one might find examples to the contrary, but fancy, expensive, complicated weapons were never the norm. Even today, with the largest military budget the world has ever known, the US military still considers these points when choosing weapons systems. For civilians in the US that weapon might be the Hi Point pistol. I bought my first Hi point new for $150 a few years back. I've seen them for less since. I could have gotten four of them for the price of a new Glock, or one of them and a couple hundred dollars ammo for training (which is what I did). It is definitely not the best at everything, not even most things, but is arguably the best commercially available product at the primary purpose of a firearm; defending the masses against all threats to life and liberty. If so, that makes the Hi Point a contender for the best gun in my book.

Best is quite a stretch

@huggleskuishy Your logic is impeccable : )

.... If you only have $250 to spend. 😬

Might get over the shame if you can put something really cool next to it

@@jacobkeltz3584 That’d work too. I’m no Gucci gun guy but those things look like they’re made out of pot metal.
