I never shot one but from what I read, they are pretty reliable. If it was me though I'd buy something a little better. You can get a S&W SD9 VE for around $300. I bought my girlfriend one and its an amazing gun for the price. Shoots great. Trigger is a little heavy but with a $20 upgrade from APEX it'll lighten it up quite a bit.

Otis if you have any questions about the SD9VE let me know. I've had it for a while.

Only thing I like from hi point are the carbines.

Something is better then nothing - just make sure whatever you end up with you practice and become familar with it.

I have a Sigma I bought in '99 for an inexpensive SD gun. I bought a HP a few years ago but, since I have other options, I never thought of having to rely on it.

I sometimes like to antagonize on Hi-Points, but in all honestly, it's 100% American made, and for the money it's probably the best deal as far as guns go - going. There have been anomalies, and there have been bad reviews; but percentage wise, I've seen a larger number of good reviews and good things about the gun that outweigh the bad reports.

Also, the company stands by their guns. They will make a wrong right, and from what I've seen in person, these are not as bad as many people like to depict.

If I was broke, if I were hard-up, but I was still a law-abiding citizen that needed a gun; I would buy one. The only reason I don't buy one is that I don't need one, but if there were a need and it fit my price-point, from what I've seen I would by one - maybe two.

This is calguns. Nobody on here owns a hi point.

Or will admit to it

I've heard they shoot better when held at a 90 degree angle. Or is this just Internet folklore???
