I have the 9mm version and love shooting it. Fairly accurate and recoil is nothing. Again the only downside is the small magazine size that comes with the piece.
I have a .45 ACP pistol that has a 15 round standard magazine. It's double-stacked, of course, but only 9-rounds for a semi-auto "black" carbine with removable magazines seems like a major "minus" to me. A 20-25 round double-stacked magazine would make the weapon much more desirable to me.
Of course, if it is really as difficult to disassemble as the review says it is, then I would not be interested in it anyway.
I’m hoping for a .45ACP version of the new Ruger PC Takedown (currently available in 9mm). If they do the interchangeable magazine well feature on the .45, it might be able to use either 1911 or Glock mags.
Marlin Campgun in .45acp.
Hipoint carbines are accurate and very reliable. They also have a lifetime no questions asked guarantee. No matter what stupid thing you do to break the gun they repair it for free and will send you 2 free mags for your trouble. The worst thing about them (besides looks) is the mushy trigger which has no clean break. It feels similar to a DAO trigger but less consistant.
I prefer the Thompson for a long arm .45 ACP.
I should have bought one when they were $135
No doubt there are better rifles in 9mm and .45 cal but for the price; it really is hard to beat the Hi Point. If it’s something you will often then get one of the better and more expensive choices but for occasional use I’ll stick with my 9mm HP. I too keep hoping for a nice 25 or 30 rd mag at a reasonable price for it and the .45.
I haven’t checked on the ProMag yet. Anyone know if it’s any good?
Remember the Ruger .44 mag semi carbine? That’s what I want. Should have bought one back in the day. grrr
