Soliciting Comments on the Hi-Point .45ACP

[theGinsue]

Thanks for all of the comments folks. I presented him with the info and he's going to go ahead and buy the Hi-Point. He could buy 2 of the Hi-Points for the price of the Bersa.

He's looking to get a really decent .45 later, but this will just be a "load and leave in the bedside table" supplemental home defense gun. (He's also got a decent 12ga for home defense.)

at least he made an informed decision, and it's better than being unarmed..

(there are some pistols out there that you're better off being unarmed, IHMO)

just make sure he tries it out, and if he has any issues, don't hesitate to call Beemiller- they'll do whatever they can to make it right.

Like others have said. Ugly as hell, but it'll eat anything you feed it, and the warranty cant be beat...

I've shot the C9 and 995 and both worked great. Highpoints are a lot like fat girls. They're fun until your friends catch you with them. If your budget only allows for a Highpoint I say go with it until you can afford something better. It's like shooting a really fun brick.

I had the 9mm version and it was my first handgun after my .22 and it shot really well. There wasn't much capacity in it that is the only downside to it. Its heavy so if you run out of bullets in a fight you can still throw and kill at least 2 more zombies with it. I would call it ugly but I'm not really one to talk. I'm glad it was made the way it was. I thought I was going to die the being the ugliest thing on the planet until I met my first highpoint. Now I'm not so worried about it anymore. lol
