Torture Test

When I get mine if you send me the ammo I would be happy to test my to the limit

 

Well from what GlockMan has stated before, he's got at least that many rounds through his carbines, and I don't know how many rounds out if his pistols....

Personally, I know for a fact that my brother Joe has 12K rounds through his C-9 without a single problem. He's even used it on duty in the Army. He had one of his Platoon Sergeants ask him about the gun and so he brought it to work one day. Well, needless to say, off the the range they go. It, *of course* fed and fired every round just like it should and never jammed one time.

No, this wouldn't classify as a "torture" test, but that's all I can offer you as to answer the question at hand.

 

:? Um, Just to let you know it is Not alowed. Zero tolerance, to use a non issue fire arm in the millitary, IE he took it to Iraq. The only exception to the rule is SHTF and he picked it up to defend himself.

As for state side, On a duty like staf duty or Brigade duty he might have brought it but I am possitive he did not tell many people.

Geneva Convention. :idea:

:arrow: Not starting an argue ment of any kind, Just sayin if I were to have brought My C-9 in uniform I would have had UCMJ on my butt ASAP.

So if he did take it in I would suggest not telling everyone. His first line supervisor may be on this forum.

 

Also if you have a CCW you still cannot carry while on duty. That is unless the regulation changed since today.

My wife had to be Councled on all this before she goes this saturday to get her CCW.

That means you cannot show up to work and have your peice in your pocket.

If you are in uniform you cannot have it on your person. It may be (depending on post regulation) have it under the seat. Fort Riley does not allow this.

These are DOD regulations and not DA regs.

DOD department of defence. DA department of the ARMY.

 

Yeah, my bro had to jump through all the hoops that day too. When the range master found out that it was a POW *Personally owned weapon* that my brother had, he almost didn't let him shoot it on the CATM range. However, my brothers Platoon Sergeant and the range master were neighbors, and so..... Yeah...

If I'm not mistaken both the Platoon Sergeant and the range master bought themselves a C9... I don't remember right off the bat, but I think they did....

 

Well I am glad he didn't get fried,

Just trying to keep a bro out of trouble.

 

Well I haven't done any form of official "torture test", but I have:

-Spilled coffee on it twice
-Banged it around in my work bag for nearly a year
-Subjected it to sub-freezing to 120 degree temps
-Had bounce down the road at 75mph on the US60

And it still fires perfect and looks great!

 

How did you manage to drop it on the highway?

 

EXCUUUSE ME!!! Not the same level as your [spat] XD or a [spit spit] Glock? Hi Points are the same level if NOT superior!! Nothing basic level about them they handle and shoot just like the "GREAT" name brands :evil:

 

Been in sand storm in shoot out. I don't think My C-9 would servive. Or any other High point hand gun. I have full confdence in the carbine though.

So ya, Torture test amkes a lot of sence. High winds rain storm. Xmas thug and sub zero temp.

A high point is a great gun. Not in the same category as an XD or Glock.

So right now I am going to put my C-9 in the freezer. pick in a few min.

Primalseal I am seriuose bro. give me a few,.

Not going to do my xd. it has been tested before.


edit to add:

Iam doing this for the why not factor. It will be fine I just don't expect it to pass a functions test till it thaws 100%.

 

Here it is in the freezer. willl ad some water and the ice maker is on mre pics to come.

 

As good as HP are, I still have always had a hiccup for 1 or 2% of rounds. Failure to feed/eject/fire always occurs. Now, it could definitely be me limp wristing or a mag feed problem. But... as I peruse the REAL tests of guns, this seems to be normal. If you believe otherwise, do an observed test and give the results. Shoot your gun 1000 rounds and see for yourself.

A "gun" is a system of human, pistol, ammunition, magazine. They are rarely perfect, even with all the bragging otherwise. The THR test (that I cited in a different thread) shows this to be true even among the top-end guns. People do not, in real life, shoot thousands of rounds without a hiccup. When put to the test (and tests have been done over and over), virtually all fail.

Why is there all this bragging in the gun world? I went to the Appleseed this weekend where thousands of rounds went down range. EVERYONE had some problem or other at some time. EVERYONE. If someone says "my gun never fails", there is about a 99% chance that he is a liar. Sorry folks, but its the truth in what I have read and what I have experienced.

All that said, the Hi Point does fine. No better... no worse.
