Great gun, Great price,
November 21, 2012
I purchased my Hi-Point 45ACP Carbine about a year ago. Went directly from the gun show to the range to sight in. It shot about 3" high and 3" right but it was a less then 2" group @ 25yds. Got it zeroed with a few clicks of the rear sight. Have since added a red dot and can break "clays" all day long at 50yds. I decided to fire it at a LEO "Q" target @ 100yds it was dead center but about 3" low. It digests any ammo without any failure to feed, fire or eject. I've fired at least 1500 rounds. I absolutely love my "ugly baby". The only problem I've had was a bent firing pin. I called Hi-Point and within 5 days I had new firing pin and springs. No hassles. At $327 it's a great bargain.

But what about the works?,
August 20, 2012
Owned a .380. Great first gun, until you clean it. These weapons are designed to use similar parts. Trigger is made in bulk from molded plastic. Trigger spring, hand grips the list goes on and on. If you are looking for an inexpensive weapon to learn on - ok, but I'd spend a bit more and get a Taurus. If you are looking for a throw away ok. You are getting what you pay for. They will put rounds down range safely. Again, don't expect precision quality when you tear this weapon down. You just won't get it.

Hi Point is great!!,
April 08, 2012
You can't beat the performance. This gun is solid, shoots great and the price is right on! Many people talk a lot of garbage about Hi Point, but that's because they don't take the time to find out how good they are. Buy one... you will not be disappointed!

Works for me!,
March 17, 2012
As far as I am concerned this weapon rates 5 stars. I bought one about 6 months ago and have fired over 600 rounds with out any FTF or FTE. I am NOT a gun expert or even close. I last fired a rifle in 1968 (M16). With the red dot laser I can consistently put 10 out 10 in the black from the hip at 25yds - A lot further than I would expect in a self defense situation and it went bang every time. Isn't that what its function is? What else can be purchased for this price with this firepower? I'm open to learn.

Great carbine,
March 12, 2012
I was skeptical about this carbine in regards to the price being cheap, thought the gun would be too. Was I ever so wrong! This gun ranks with the top guns I have shot and I have shot a lot being in the military. The accessories from Hi Point are great and cheap on the wallet. I have completed this carbine with the dual mag holder on the rear butt stock with two extra mags, a light, tripod and forward grip. I would have rather carried this in Iraq than my M16. There is one small flaw with the iron sights, at 50 yards it hits 1 inch below target and there is no more adjustment. I plan on putting new tactical sights anyways so I just use Kentucky Windage for now. I plan on purchasing the 45 handgun since the mags are interchangeable. Awesome job Hi Point and thanks for being made with pride here in the USA.

Cool gun at a cool price,
January 14, 2012
Had mine for about a month. Had a lot of trouble with the iron sights but took them off and put on a red dot and it's been great out to 50 yards. Mag is only 9 rounds which isn't great. They make a mag holder that clips two more to the stock and that helps some. A little heavy. Still, fun to shoot, looks good in a funky way, and has its uses as a defense tool as well.

Can't say enough about this gun,
December 09, 2011
Purchased this an took it out and it fired 100+ rounds without an issue. Took 8 shots to dial in the sights and its been flawless every since. Has a nice even feel to the weight of the gun. I'm really thinking about buying another one
