They're heavy, ugly,inexpensive, and dependable. If you're looking for a basic pistol that works, you'll not be disappointed.
As I understand it, to clean them, you don't really take them apart. You sort of run a patch through the barrel, and that's about it.
If I was looking for a good weapon, and didn't have much cash, Hi-Point is what I'd buy.
Regardless of their looks (which are unattractive), I think that these are fantastic weapons. They are accurate, dependable, and cheap enough that even non-gun people can afford to drop a couple of bills and become legal gun owners. It takes considerably more motivation to spend $500-$1,000 on what is certainly a more attractive, but not necessarily more effective defense tool. Coming from a very poor family, I believe that poor citizens have the same right to defense that middle class (if there is one left:frownand the wealthy have.
Also, they are cheap enough that you could buy a few to stash in those Festus' SHTF emergency cache buckets! Can you imagine tens or hundreds of thousands of Hi-Point pistols and carbines buried all over the country? Seems reasonable to me!
:yes4:
Per the Service Rep. I spoke to: Run a patch or BoreSnake through it after ~500 rounds. After ~5000 rounds, do the full disassembly (drive out the roll pin) and give everything a good cleaning. Same routine for the pistols or the carbines.
I thought your supposed to buy a new once you've fired 5k rounds thorugh it. :lol:

My 995 has ~7500 through it, the barrel still looks good, and all the hot lead goes to the same spot at 50 yards. I get a little sloppy at 115 yards, and only manage to put a five magazine (50 rd) string of fire in a 6-8 inch circle. Not bad for a $189 PCC.
Have you had trouble before, with NICS? The reason I ask, I'm told that generally once you run into a problem with NICS, it will usually keep on occuring. Even if you're eventually Ok'd to purchase the firearm.I just bought a 9MM and 380 but got delayed by NICS. obama musta put a notation in my file " mess this one up"
never fails.every time they make me wait.:angry:
