Here's how.

I see you didn't argue the point that a 10 rd bullpup is gay.

You can convert the .45 Hi Point to use 1911 mags. That includes drum mags. In theory, the same mod will work for the other Hi Point Carbines. High Tower doesn't think their bullpup will work with the mod, but no one's tried yet.

You could always just convert the 1911 mags to work in a hi-point.

I think I read like 250 or something. I don't know for sure though.

yeah you're spot on. Looks like you have to get on a waiting list to get your order filled. Just may get one for my .45 carbine.

If I had one I'd definitely consider it. I don't think I would buy their carbine without changing it to something like this. Still hard to justify though when for a hundred dollars more than this stock you can have a complete AR pistol at the moment.

Why ruin perfectly good 1911 mags for a Hi Point? The conversion kit is only $30...when it's in stock.

I hear ya. Bought one years ago and really like it. My buddies gave me a lot of crap when I bought it , until they shot it. Freakin' tack driver at 50 yards and not bad at 100. I've got good stuff too but for $300 it ain't bad at all. No way I would spend $600 for a new one and BP kit if I didn't already have one sitting in the safe. Gotta love that lifetime warranty which is transferable and Hipoint is right across the line in Mansfield, OH.
