I prefer a different brand of the plastic guns that don't get the love they deserve.

Let me guess.... Hi-Point?

High Point!!

oh? I've only ever seen them going for like $75 - $100 cheaper than a brand new one. And if that's all I'm saving, I'm buying new.

You could just buy a Hi Point and get two for the price of one

High Point!!

Jennings if you must know

No, I really couldn't... I'm a bit of a snob

and have four times the weight and ten times the ugliness

Jennings if you must know

I had a guy go though my training class a few years ago and he was having to actually push the slide forward after each shot with his thumb to put it in battery! it was too funny

Ya, but Don would cut you a DEAL!

Jennings/Bryco/Hi-point have been known to cause butt hurt and feline aids.

You really have a jennings?

I think a hi-point is actually a step up. Have you had probs with your Jennings yet?

A guy I worked with went to the range with me and another guy. I actually seen the gun come apart when he was shooting. The chamber indicator hit him in the head.

I know a few people with hi-points, they might be heavy and ugly but they seem decently reliable.

Crap, we're talking about guns again in here.

Oh well, its hard to get guns off the brain usually.

And not necessarily in that order!!

That they are....but how can some carry that thing! freakin heavy,thick and no one makes a good holster for em.
I seen a guy at the gun shop not long ago who was carrying a hi-point .45 in a shoulder holster...he thought he was magnum pi or something.

I'd never buy one. Just saying, they are at least somewhat reliable.

Yep, I think I've mentioned that before. I'll admit it

Once you buy a Sig or an HK, its hard to look at those lesser brands
