Hi Point, need I say more?

[ZatsavaM59]

I'm ashamed to say that I bought the Hi point in 9 mm. Biggest mistake ever. They make the crappiest magazines. The rounds kept nose diving. So I decided to send the gun back to Hi Point for some work. They said they fixed it and they didn't have any problems. I took it to the range recently and guess what? THE SAME PROBLEM !!!!!! Wow, what a pile. I don't thnk I want to spend $45 again to send it in again....I'm not sure if I should keep the pile or get rid of it.

Go to the hi point forums. They'll tell you what to do. Mine runs just fine.

[ZatsavaM59]

That's the problem. I think it's crappy that I would have to send it in again when they specifically said that they didn't have any failures to feed.

[meaty-btz]

I'll give you $10 for it

[Pauliedad]

I'll buy it. Pm me if serious. Always wanted a cheap 9 to work on.

I didn't say send it back in. Hipoint forums is a website. The people there will tell you how to easily modify the mags to be reliable.

[ZatsavaM59]

Yeah I tried that trick for mags. Didn't work lol

Do you own any other handgun(s) that you are already experienced with, or is this your first?

Make sure your rounds are seated at the correct angle

Shoot FMJ

[ZatsavaM59]

Not my first one. The way that the mag is built it is easy for the rounds to nose dive.

[tal3nt]

I'm familiar with the magazines. Usually if the round at the very top of the mag is properly angled (so that the nose of the bullet is pointing upward) before inserting into the magwell, the rest of the rounds should feed just fine.. But like another member has suggested, the guys over at hipoint forum should be able to help you out much better than I can

Good luck

[ZatsavaM59]

Thanks

What other firearms do you own and how long have you been shooting handguns? I ask because I've owned four hipoints at one time or another and after adjusting the mags i never have had a problem. My wife often had a problem with her C9 till i got her to stop limp wristing.

POS, I regret buying mine.

[tal3nt]

Ya'll knew what you were buying though, right? a sub $200 9mm pistol.. Still, from what I read, people love 'em.. I know I love my 995

Sell it for a couple twenties and go have some fun if it's a POS

ill give you 10 bucks to ease your regret. If it really is as bad as everyone says then it can't be worth more than ten bucks, maybe twenty.
