comparison on youtube.com
has this young fella talking about three different carbines he owns...
the hi point 995 , the kel tec sub 2000 , and the berretta cx4 storm
he makes comparisons of the three, and demonstrates their respective performances from about 40 yards out.
though the content is somewhat remedial in nature , i thought it was worth watching simply because of my curiosity with regards to all three of these particular weapons..
i found this a few days ago while still gathering info on the 995 and making comparisons to other weapons of similar design before my final decision on making a purchase..
i have a lot of respect for Kel Tec, their sub is an innovative design that is also very practical ( how hard is it to do that!) and Kel Tec apparently makes a very good gun. in a market that is populated by consumers who are both well informed and finicky - there are alot of satisfied and loyal Kel Tec gun owners out there..
( got my hi point carbine this afternoon by the way
)
the one factor which nearly persuaded me to pick up a Kel tec , was the fact that i could utilize glock mags with their carbine..
high capacity magazines of
high quality construction was every kids dream back when we all were shooting our 9mm tec's and mac's
we all hated the super cheesy 30 round aftermarket magazines with lips that would bend and deform just from having ammunition put through them - almost as much as we hated the "Ban Compliant" 10 rounders that the government was trying to force feed us :evil:
lets cut to the chase here !
the real allure of a compact carbine that shoots small caliber ammo has always been four basic attributes , which all work together to make these compact carbines so much fun to shoot and such superb tactical weapons..
1. extremely light recoil resulting in superior handling / control
( you can fire them very quickly , and very accurately )
2. high capacity magazines and the fast cycling of ammunition
( you can fire them accurately quickly - and lots and lots of times!)
these characteristics all working together is what makes the compact carbine such a unique critter.. and are inherent factors of the advantages a sub has over other weapon design classes
the capacity of these 995's being limited to ten rounds, the inherent tactical advantages typical for this class of weapon design is somewhat reduced. you empty a ten round clip very quickly when firing two and three round burst..
i think all hi point carbine owners should be interested in a magazine extension that would work well with the factory ten round clips..
18+ sounds about right
later fellas... Allen
