Night stand not safe and just following MOM's recommendation on cleaning the pistol. Besides less time cleaning my pistol means more time getting MY GUN dirty. ;)
Just so you know, you really ought to clean YOUR gun a lot more often than every thousand rounds or so..... ;)

Do you keep the Hi Point as your ready gun so that you don't have to have one of your nicer ones go into evidence if you have to shoot a home invader?
I haven't exactly thought about it that specifically, but it is the gun I care the least about in terms of monetary value, sentimental value, and aesthetically while still having the stopping power.

I don't care if it gets dinged up by things in a drawer or the dirt and pebbles on the floor of my pick up. I'm very comfortable operating it.

That IS a big ass grip screw. Overall I like what I saw. I shoot right handed even though I'm a lefty. So I dig the ambi mag release. I haven't decided yet on liking or disliking the grip safety . But I own a 1911 from ATI so I guess I don't hate them.
I guess I should have expected them to keep it unlocked blowback to keep production simple and price cheaper. The short answer is yeah I'll buy one. Not gonna stand in line or pay a premium like the Glock fanboys did with the G42 and G43. But sooner or later...
Well it is supposedly going to stay at a 200 buck msrp so they will probably sell the hell out of them. And one could always take a sharpie to that screw.

I like the way the mock-up looks. It tickles my space-gun nerve.

And I can't be the only one who thinks the new Hi Point "H" logo looks like Darth Vader's Tie Fighter.

Peace favor your sword,

Haha!! I was thinking star wars too but couldn't remember the name of that particular fighter.

No, I'm sayin the HP is not worth buying IMO, there are other inexpensive guns out there that are a better buy and not ugly heavy bricks.
Dude, you're in a hi point forum....

If the hp pistols are too big and heavy for you, you can send them to me and I'll handle them. Then you can go cry in your Cheerios on some glunk forum.

Yeah this is basically the same carbine. But I've heard several bad reports about reliability.
From what I gather from over at ktog it can very very finnicky until you get several hundred rounds through it and find out exactly what the one you have likes to eat, just like the pmr30.

Yep, I'm over it. If I see another hipoint pistol so cheap it would be stupid not to buy it, I will, and I do still want one of the carbines, but only at the right price. I don't really give a hoot about the yc9 anymore.

I'm definitely more interested in the 10mm than the yeet, not that I need to add another caliber. If I add 10mm, of course I'll need to get another 1911 as well, and then I'll need the 1095, and then it's whole new spending kick, and I just can't be buying anymore guns for a bit, lol. Went a little overboard last year, no budget for it right now.
