Good afternoon all.Just thought i would try out this forum thing.I'm a married father of a 1 year old little girl who in the past few years moved to the Georgia Mountains.For my daughters birthday we got a Jack Russel puppy named Poncho Villa.Well,last week Poncho Needed to go out around 10pm.As I was standing there in my drawers,The biggest Coyote I've ever seen came up on Poncho mid expulsion.I ran up and snatched The dog and ran into the house to get my little Mossberg 702 plinkster.When I got back outside I noticed there were 3 coyotes in my driveway.I fired off a few rounds but nothing stuck.the next day my wife suggested that we get a handgun to keep around J.I.C.
I headed to the local gun store to see what was available.Needless to say Most of the ones I really liked were a bit more than what I could(wanted to) spend.Toward the end of the display case were a couple of large black,well,what seemed to be bricks.An older gentleman noticed What I was looking at and said.."Your better off with a baseball bat then one of those POS.""Wait a minute"said the guy behind me."I got one a'them,never let me down yet...shoooot"
The next thing I know I'm in the middle of an argument about HIPOINT firearms...HIPOINT firearms?I had never heard of this brand.The guy who came to their defence offered to let me shoot his C9 there at the range and let me judge for myself.
After about 150+ rounds,I was sold.I liked the feel,weight,recoil,balance and the fact that it didn't jam once.As I was at the counter doing the old background check,The nice fella' who let me shoot his gun,Bobby Ray,Stated that the reason he came to the gun shop was to pick up his new 995ts...Now that looked like it would take care of some BIDNIZ!!!
The shop owner says "For the price of that Glock you were looking at,I'll sell ya the 9 and the carbine"...$450.00 later I'm killing water melons in my back yard with Bobby.So now thanks to HIPOINT,I'm happy-the wifes happy-Poncos happy and Old bobby won't leave my house.Thanks HIPOINT!
