What did you BUY today? - Page 111

Picked up a 9mm Hi-Point last week. Ugly as sin but very accurate and past a hundred fifty rounds through it without any hickups. I would have to say its just as accurate if not more than my 45 Springfield Armory 1911 that's past a few thousand rounds through. Cost me under $150 new.

No heaver than my 1911. It's a blow back so the slide is a little heavy. I wanted something I could carry and not worry about it getting scuffed up. Although I paid less for my 1911 35+ years ago from a friend of mine that built custom guns for competition. That gun is worth well over $1200 today. I did a good bit of competition shooting back in the day. I keep that one under lock and key. I'll do a little fine tuning on the Hi-Point. Feed ramp needs a little polishing up. I have a few buddies that have and carry them instead of there high dollar guns. Like they told me. They ain't pretty but will shoot anything you put through them. Best part are they are made in the USA and have a lifetime warranty which includes wear and tear. Watch this video. 1000 round torture test.

Hipoints are fine, people love to bash them but 95% of the people running their mouth have never shot one. They are ugly and heavy but they normally run fine. Hipoints CS is great too, i have a 9mm carbine i bought from a buddy who lost the take down tools, i called to buy one but they just gave them to me for free. I bought a few extra mags and told them to ship it with that so they didn't have to pay postage. Best of all if you run out of ammo it becomes a hammer lol.

I don't get the "Yeet Cannon G1" thing. It's the same gun I bought with some white letters stenciled on it. lol They're both +P rated.

i dont either... the msrp is even the same...LOL as a side note, i have fairly large hands, and dont like most compact handguns... hows the 9mm grip space on the high point? i havent held one in about 6 yrs...LOL it may be the difference between getting it chambered in 9mm or going straight to the 45...

It fits my hand perfect. I will add grip overlays to get a little better grip. I was looking at the 45 too but already have a 45. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01D6EC806...lig_dp_it&th=1

Lol, No. But if you get a 10 round clip it will give you some extra room if needed.

This video will give you a good idea of the size with the 10 round clip.

bogieboy · 01-14-2020, 02:36 PM

that works.... i would have to hold one again...LOL it took me a while to find my first, an S&W 22a, which fit me perfect, just wanted a plinker at the time, and couldnt beat the pre obama .22LR prices... but these days i am wanting something to possibly carry, once i get the license... i like that they are 100% US based too...

The Bike Bar got here today, Weld.

It’s made to order in India and the bikes are Indian built copies of the ubiquitous Raleigh DL1. I’m a bit more stoked than I thought I’d be because this one is an Atlas bicycle. I had the exact same model in the late eighties as ‘chill ride’ when I wasn’t training for a race. Quite a surprise.

Cheesy, I wish I could give this a double like! That's awesome. Looks like it's a great addition to the new place!
