Hi-Point Compact 9mm, 3.5" Barrel, Black, Polymer Frame, 8rd

So far i have owened two of these guns and have not had one problem out of neither one just like any other gun cheap or high u have to keep them clean and lubed as far as looks go i think its a pretty good looking gun no not a glock or colt, or s&w but for the price its a great gun and i would recomend it to any one who knows how to take care of there gun and is on a limeted price budget.

i bought my doing some research first. i polished the feed ramp and never hand a problem shot over 700 rounds. great gun for a first gun.

Love the C-9. Have tried the more expensive guns and this one more than holds its own. Have shot hundreds of rounds and it is very accurate. Never had a problem with the mag dropping out or misfire. Feeds full metal jacket and hollow points with ease. For me, very comfortable. Not too much kickback. Ugly? Hey, I'm shooting it; not dating it. Although the price can't be beat for a quality weapon, the only thing that matters is whether it will fire when needed - - and for me it does.

Yes the HiPoint's are inexpensive and ugly. However after owning my C9 for 3 years and thousands of rounds fired, I would have to say it outperformed my other "high priced" CCW. My C9 likes brass and has jammed 2 times in all of the rounds fired through it. Keep it clean and lubed and it will work as well as just about any firearm out there.

I dont know where people keep getting their gun reviews or opinions from on the 9mm Hi-Point. Dont listen to the guy at the gun shop because he is more likely trying to sell you a more expensive gun. This side arm works fine for me, because I clean my gun after every shooting. Yes, listen to Ron, keep it VERY LUBED!! I have put about 300 rounds with no FTE, FTL, or Stove pipes. I do only use FMJ ammo, brass and laquer steel casing. ( She likes the brass!) Its heavy for a 9mm, but if its your 1st or 2nd buy you won't know the difference. I also agree the weight helps the less experienced shooters. My ex-girlfriend has one and hers jams and drops the mag, but she treats her gun like her car,she never does an oil change. LOL!

I have the .380 and the 9mm... Not the coolest looking gun but shot over 600 rounds through both of them, no problems... After first 3 rounds both guns jammed, I took both apart and cleaned them. Haven't had a problem since... YOU HAVE TO CLEAN AND LUBE THESE GUNS>>>>>> If you don't do not complain about misfires... If your lazy and don[t like to clean your gun, this is not for you...

I bourgh the hi-point9c 1st. cal bigger than 22cal. hand gun in my life 75 years old. At range I can hit the target at 20 ft. most times.the mag, doesn't fall out ??? hAVE HAD A BALL with this cheap gun.over 600 hundard rounds and no stove pipes or misfiers. use 115fmj & 124ghp

I am the 3rd owner of the C9 that's currently in my possession. I HAD the same problems as the guy who reported stove pipes and the mag drop accidentally being actuated. The stovepipes happened when I would actuate the mag drop. The mag would drop about 1/4 inch, but not fully eject; resulting in a stovepipe. I bought a Hougue handall slip on sleeve. (The one that "fits most glocks"). The sleeve added just enough thickness near the mag release button that it miraculously fixed the accidental drops. (And not to mention; I dont feel like the weapon will slip out of my hands now. the grip is very slick w/o the sleeve added on.) Problem solved! Runs flawless now. Get one. They are fun. (and you dont feel to bad if you drop it in the mud, accidentally run it over; or what-not.) :0

i picked this gun up a few years back it is an awesome gun was sceptical at first but after going to the range once i fell in love with the ugly duck.... very reliable but ugly as sin. i have put about 500 rounds through the gun and havent had a problem yet.
