My buddy talked me into the 4" barrel full size. I almost bought the compact but he says it sucks for longer range.
That's the one I got too. Shoots nice.

i bet if you gave a prisoner the chance to have a hi point ot make a zipgun, he would choose a zipgun. hi point is a alright range gun and it's better than no gun but it would almost be irresponsible of anyone to use it as a defense weapon. when you can get far better quality used guns for the same price.

i guess i would get one if i needed a hammer or the right to say have a handgun.

i dont wanna scare ya, but i tell everyone that i encounter that is thinking of hipoint to really ask if their safety is worth only $100.

last summer some of my freinds went shooting with ther new Hi-point they purchased (i was in a field training exercise so i couldnt go) here is the result

Here's the Hi-Point .45 that shot the casing into my buddies face: Note the blown out chamber

Been a while since i posted on here but i had to cancel the layaway on the xd when i lost my job a while back. Im making good money and got about 400 bucks for a gun this weekend. Theres a gun show about 5 miles from my house so we will see what i bring home. I really want a rock island 1911......Last gun show i went to i picked the xd up and the rock island 1911 and they both felt amazing. Except the 1911 is alot heavier. Probably go with the xd since its lighter for concealment.
