Any Hi Point carbine owners here?

I have this temptation to get one in .45 ACP. For the price it would make a nice ranger plinker and I do reload for .45 ACP.

It's always been an interesting Rifle. Keep us posted on your search. I hear they are solid dependable units.

Have a High Point carbine in 9mm. It is a decant plinking gun and pretty cheap to shoot. Have not had any trouble with it and the LGS told me they have a lifetime guarantee.

I have the same rifle in 10mm, and I was floored at the accuracy.
I have given serious thought to taking it out for a deer hunt, although I think I would keep the shot to 50 yards or so.

For the price point, they're a hoot, and very reliable.
Just a little heavy and clunky, but otherwise worth every dime.

I have one in .40 -- I tell my buddies that they can laugh once, but invariably they are impressed with how it shoots.

None here forty, but like you have thought about one.
While over at my daughter's this past week a friend of theirs brought one over.
The 9 mm version, my first time shootin' one.

Other than chasin' brass, :roll: I liked it.
The 45 would be the one I'd want also.
And hey, they come with a Lifetime Warranty.
I did have one of their 9 mm pistols years ago.
Had to send it back once for repairs, no questions asked.
And when it came back it had an extra mag.

I have the Ruger Version in a 40S&W. There alot of fun to plink with at the range. I have a ton of 40 brass and its really cheap brass to buy because its not that popular and people sell it cheap to get rid of it.

I would love to find one in 10mm to pair with my 10mm handguns. I've heard nothing but good things about them.

I own a 995 classic "monkey gun" and I like it. I have owned the 995TS before but sold it since I prefer the classic "monkey gun" over it.

In the past I had one of the original Ruger PC-9’s and more recently I had an AR in 9mm. Both are fun enough to make a grown man giggle. :lol:

Yes, I sold it in 2017 based on the date of the below photo. I’m one of those crazy guys that does way too much selling, buying and trading of guns. Seems like I’m always finding something I want to try out so do a sale in order to buy or make a trade. I have some however that I have had for many, many years that I’ll never get rid of until I get rid of them all.

Last year I bought a PC-40 and I like it better than the nine. In the meantime my neighbor was looking for one and I had the camo model in the 9. He asked me if I wanted to sell it but because he and his wife have been such good neighbors I just gave it to him. He will help out anytime and he is watching the house while we are away. Seemed like the right thing to do so I did it.
