HiPoint Vs. Glock

[TMB 1]

HiPoints are cheap (I bought two here in Texas from a guy at church for $175, a 9mm and a .40, each with three extra mags) and they work. OTOH, they are big and clunky and cumbersome and feel like they're made of cast pot metal. They look, feel and smell like they came from Harbor Freight. Worst triggers ever. But they work and are reasonably accurate.

You must have never shot a Glock.

The first is super obvious, cost.

So low cost would make a Yugo a better vehicle than other vehicles just because it is much cheaper?

Yes, if cheapness if your focus.

There's a topic among people who keep the highest quality gear that people with the lower price/quality gear "justify their purchases".
In my opinion, glocks have just as many notches on their belts as any top quality pistol, european or American(sig and 1911).

Only if Yugo will replace it every time it gets totaled, blows up, etc.. for life.

Cost is often a deciding factor in purchasing anything. Specially if one costs 20-25% of the other one. A lower cost product makes it more affordable for everyone and allows those who can not afford to pay 500% more for a different make or model to still have a working product. That said, for me, it's fun to be able to out shoot those who spend more on gun thinking that money buys accuracy or precision and they don't have to do their part because, they paid more for their gun.

Sounds like you are talking about custom 1911 owners not Glock owners. Since when are Glocks considered expensive guns?

Yeah, I want a police trade-in Hipoint. Bwahaha. More like police confiscated Hipoint.

The first is super obvious, cost. The second one is their simplicity of design. There are less parts to fail on a Hi Point and, the fixed barrel design is arguably a better design for precision shooting. The third one is there warranty and customer service. Finally, Hi Points are really fun to use when out shooting someone who is shooting a +$2500 Gucci Glock or even a OEM Glock.

Roland Special ? Supposedly a new level of tactical awareness handgun ? Gucci ? Like a Zev glock ?

We all know those are not needed on a OEM Glock - new steel sights and a good holster ( with ammo and extra mags ) is enough to get by almost any situation that calls for a handgun.

What's next calling out all the Wilson, Guncrafter, Les Bauer, Nighthawk boys.. ( because they should have bought GI 1911's )

I like Glocks and have shot them since the late 80's, there nice - and while they have been copied and somewhat improved - they work almost all the time. The Hi- Point may be nice - but I'm just to tactical for that bra
