I have a sneaky suspicion they are made out of old toasters and can openers they recycle from the trash dump.
Nothing wrong with a hi point. Cheap....but they work. 600 rounds thru mine with no problems. I just dont like that its zinc. Can't stand the hi point haters that never owned one. If i drove a mercedes i would'nt poke fun at someone who could only afford a kia. That would make me a jerk wouldn't it.
