Okay, I give up

I'm pretty sure that there is some serious trolling going on here. It seems to me that the people who responded with name "Yeet Cannon" were messing with Hi-Point, because they probably think that Hi-Points are a joke, because, well...

I think that HK is kind of being like a mean girl here. No matter what, the reputation of their Mark 23 isn't going to be tarnished by pretending that it has some stupid name, but if you can get a loser gun company to officially name a product something so stupid, while getting a bunch of press, it's a win/win situation.

That's my theory at least.

Palmetto State Armory has them as well.
^They already sold out.

I saw this yesterday in a PSA email, couldn't figure it out until I saw this thread. Usually the special lowers at PSA have a distinctive, obvious meaning.....this one had me baffled.

Just saw the PSA email today and was thinking the same thing...

Haha yes, I have seen those posts. Well at least images of those posts.

I know that HK is pushing them to name the gun "Yeet Cannon", and that they will do the photo shoot with their Mark 23. It seems to me that it's a trick to get Hi-Point to look even more silly. Kind of like the "cool kids" inviting a nerd to a regular party, but telling them that it's a pirate-themed costume party, only to have the poor kid show up dressed as Blackbeard with a parrot on his shoulder while everyone else is dressed normally. Not that I have any personal experience with that sort of thing...

When you charge the HK prices for Rolls Royce goods.

Yet Hi-Point sells reasonable priced goods at Toyota prices.

One has to wonder what the Yeet is the dilly?

It’s a brilliant way to attract fresh meat to the gun market.

Begun the meme gun wars have...

No way I would buy a Hi-Point. But I would totally buy a Hi-Point "Yeet Cannon".

Marketing at work.

Meme name aside, it looks like a pretty good gun for the money. Threaded barrel, changeable back strap, front serrations, double stack mag, all for the same $200 price. Plus it can also still use single stack hi point mags for those that have them.

I saw this and was cracking up.
