Default Pistols ???

A friend of mine has a hi point .45 jhp and a hi point 9mm new in box and will sell me both of them for 200 bucks...I've always known them to be trash but he assures me other wise...also most of the reviews say they are great accurate but heavy his and 99 percent of the problems with them are due to the mags and just need a little modifying...no these will not be carry weapons just a couple extra guns cause I am a firm believer that you can never have enough...


Also wanted to ask if anyone has ever had a Eaa witness p I have one in 10mm on order coming to my FFL..it's a cz 75 clone but they feel better and shoot just as good and only cost me 375 bucks....wife is gonna kill me after all this.

I don't own a hi point nor did I shoot one but I hear mixed reviews about them some people swear by them and some say they are junk. Either way $200 for both!! don't waste your money get him in touch with me and I'll take them off his hands.😁

I think the ones that call em junk are the ones who never had one and they say there junk because they are so cheap. IMO

I have a 9mm hi-point and never had any problems with it, had it for about a year now and shoot it quite often.

got a friend who worked at a pawn shop for a while, said you could talk as much crap about that gun as possible and people would still buy it because of price, but no body ever came back to tell them they sold them a peice of crap and they sell more then any other pistol, I had a hi point carbine, it was fun to shoot and I never had any problems with it, and it only cost $250! they even had reviews on it that said it was more accurate then the beretta carbines!

I've only shot approx 500 rounds with my hi-point 9mm but it has never given any problems. Just kinda on the heavy side and feels cheaply built compared to the more pricey guns. But they are decent guns.

They shoot. Good cheap gun for bringing in the woods or marsh. Not much loss if something happens. I wouldnt rely on them for the safety of my family though.

i have had a Hi Point .380 since 1996. I shot it a bunch for the first few years, Now I take it out twice a year just to shot it. It is heavy, and cheap, but I never had any problems with it.
