mahdey Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 I have a hi point .45 i bought as my first hand gun which i now gave to my parents for the home. I've put 700+ rounds through it and have never taken it apart. All i did was just spray clean it with polymer safe solvent and oil it through the holes. As far as i'm concerned they are a good gun. That said, the m'fer is huge and when i called to tell them they have a good gun, i said if i run out of bullets im throwing it at the burglar.

DangBruhY Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 There have been a couple of people who haven't had any problems. I'm not going to take my chances with them.I've put 3000 rounds through my GLOCK without a single malfunction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

|SnOmAn| Posted June 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 I would have to say every gun has its issues. I've shot a S&W, I think, too long ago to remember, but it jammed all the time and it sucked. So now what? They suck too? No, I am sure that Hi Point may have more issues then others, but we shall see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
speedytriple Posted June 2, 2010 Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 Hey as long as you pratice and learn to shoot the best you can. Hipoints are kinda like katanas, they work just fine but get no respect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love to shoot. When I was down in South Florida we use to go all the time. Funny how we always came back with more money then we went with... No but for real, we use to go to the range once every couple of weeks. I would rent a gun to try out to see if I liked them or not. Tried a lot of guns and only liked a few.
