How to "improve" your Hi Point Pistol

I admire the guy for not trying to sell it to some other sucker.

Or he could have sent it back to Hi Point and they would have fixed it, so it worked right. Then who ever he sold it to would have gotten a pistol that works right.

I am not certain you can fix a hi point.
They are the devil's handy work

Man, you guys are brutal!!

I have had zero problems with my Hi Points and I've had a couple. The 995, the 995TS, and 2 C-9.... Always functioned fine.

Heavy, kinda ugly.. you bet.

I also have higher end guns and I like them. As long as they work, no problem for me, ans I sure won't dog your choices..

Every gun maker has their issues and sends a bad gun out every now and then. Nobody is perfect and people brand bash everything I am not worried about it I have two Hi-Points and a XD40SC and I would trust my Hi-Point to defend myself and family if needed.

nope they would have broken it again. didnt you see the video? it hit the target 1 out of 2, thats outstanding for a hi point. nothing needs repaierd.

Hi Point is one of the crapyiest guns ever made. better off carrying a musket. why take a chance on your life? i would always be wondering if it would function when i needed it. if your life is worth only $100, then buy a hi-point, but if thats all you can afford then your better off buying a good pair of running shoes and running away. your chances to live are better than using the hi point. thats not my , thats just good advice.

Better off buying running shoes!!! Thats funy ****!!!

If that were true the Lifetime warranty would have bankrupted the company years ago.

A Hi Point isn't all I bought. I bought a Hi Point and a SxS 12ga and I have money left over for a Mosin!

but if thats all you can afford then your better off buying a good pair of running shoes and running away. your chances to live are better than using the hi point. thats not my , thats just good advice.

So you don't have any exerience with Hi Points, and you have no idea what you are talking about, got it.

I think I will stick to my glock! i have never owned a hipoint and I have shot one at the range one time and like they say you get what you pay for. at least with my glock i have a chance of hitting a target at more then 20 feet, have hi cap mags, and it dosent take a nice fire to improve it!!

Not a thing wrong with that.

The good news for me is that I can OC my Hi Point with out any fear of the bad guy shooting me first to take out the threat! Then when he is laughing at me I can knock him over the head.

have hi cap mags, and it dosent take a nice fire to improve it!!

If you find any more Hi Points that need improving, you can send them to me. i will take care of it! I will even pay for shipping.

 

[paperboy]

Sorry, but what a tool!!!! (the guy not the gun)

 

[shawnfox12]

lol that was a good fire till he throw that hunk of **** in there

Improve your sights, improve your shooting

Hi there, there is something I did to my hi-points using a product I found on the internet, is called glow-on super phosphorescent (glow-on.com).

I specifically tried to improve the sight system, first on my pistols and then I moved to my carbine.
The enhancement was easy to make although it required patience (if you can thread a needle you can do it too!) and very affordable, less than twenty greenbacks.
Let me stop here and let you check for yourselves:

Not bad at all , needles to say the enhancement improved on my ability to acquire and shoot a target. Plus a flinching reflex I had developed with the 40 S&W (a very snappy round) just went away.

Regards, Browncat

 

[browncat]

By the way

It is the shooters talent not the tool the does the job, (think David and Goliath).
There are plenty of examples of this but my intention is not to insult anybody, things are what they are, I know there are old mosin nagants around for about a hundred bucks, I've personally tried a couple at 400 yards with just the iron sights, if you have too, you wont let me lie, the simplicity, the accuracy, and the power can equal the performance of rifles 10 times that price.

peace, Browncat

"IF" i own a hi-point, it will be a "throw away piece"

e5ranger375 definition of Throw away piece: The gun the dead bad guy has in his hands when law enforcement arrives. consisting of such a crappy pistol (such as hi-point) that it would be believable a bad guy would be carrying it, so the baseball bat thats laying next to him is ignored.

You so funny

 

[E5RANGER375]

I'm sure it wasn't a threat. He was probably just offering to come to your house and take you to the gun range, so you could see for yourself how well his Hi Points function.

AHHHHHH, i see. its one of those UBER SECRET NINJA RANGES where i have to get knocked out by being pistol whipped first, so i cant reveal the directions on how i came to arrive there. ......... explain to me how im gonna be shooting on my knees with duct tape on my hands again??

 

[jclark]

I never had an opinion until I shot one. I didn't care for it at all.
