Hi Point Kaboom

[booker]

Yep, they're cheaply made.
Yep, they mess up occasionally.
Yep, you probably should only use them for plinking and target practice. But they could double for home protection.

Don't forget, made in the USA!

I didn't have a chance to read this thread before now. None of what the guys did in their series of videos is something I'd do with my Hi-Points (except shoot them at targets under normal conditions). My four pistols (.380, 9mm, 40s&w & .45acp) are a lot of fun to plink with. None are as good as my better quality pistols.

Since Hi-Points do have a lifetime warranty, I wonder if they sent the C9 back to the factory for repair?

I think they sent one back, it may have been a .380 or something.

I have a C9 and I like it alot. It is a bit snappy though.

If you want to try before you buy, OnTarget has them.

In Severn? http://www.ontarget.biz/rentals.html
I didn't see them listed in the rentals

I would like to try one before buying one.

I bought a 995TS for $300,impulse buy,a few months ago.Since then I've put about 500 rounds through it and it hasnt skipped a beat yet.Although it wouldnt be the first gun I grab for home defense,it is loaded in my cabinet though and ready to go,it is a absolutely great gun for its price.And I love how it has 3 sets of rails.My only complaint is the 10 round magazines,they sell 15 but 20 would be great

I have owned a 995 carbine and a C-9 both Never malfunctioned. I only sold them to put money towards something else and to get something that would increase in value. I miss both of them. Put a high cap mag with the carbine and I would just bet they would be in a few peoples closets for HD

I went to on-target in Odenton last night and they do not rent Hi-Point guns.
They do however sell the carbines. They had a 4595 in stock.
