I have A 9mm Hi Point.
It’s heavy as a brick but it has never misfired or stove piped a round. Just use good quality Ammo, keep it clean and you’re good to go.
It only cost me $149. For someone out there without a lot of money it does the Job. It’s just a plinker to me but to someone else without the means it offers affordable protection.
I also have a nice little ATI .22 that is built well and didn’t cost a fortune. Fits my hand very well and is modeled after a 1911. Pretty accurate for only having a 3.4” Barrel.
Of course, those are just a couple of cheap Pistols in my little Arsenal, but I love my S&W Model 29 .44 Magnum.
Now that’s a Gun.
Hi points serve a purpose.
