Congrats on your HPs. They look great. I'm going to powder coat the receiver cover and sight ears on my 995TS. I talked with a rep. @ Hi-point today and he said they are considering doing this in the future but right now they can't make their 995s fast enough as it is. He also said they will be shipping .40 S&Ws & .45ACPs with the TS stock in 2010. You all probably knew that already though. He also said TS stocks will be available in 2010 for anyone wanting to convert a "classic" carbine. While I was on the line with him he told me they were now selling a foldable front vertical grip that mounts on the TS lower rail. I ordered one. He said it was the first one to be sold. I'll bet he tells all the guys that. Anyone ity should be here next week. again great looking carbs. Hope to get mine up to speed soon.
