I finally got to shoot the most accurate and reliable pistols ever made!
This weekend we were out in western PA visiting family for a graduation party.
On Saturday afternoon, the weapons came out. There they were in all if their beautiful glory. Four Hi-points, a 9mm, a.40, a.45 and a 9mm carbine.
First impressions, they are butt-ugly and heavy. So I got to shoot them and: way top heavy, no likey the triggers, not very accurate. I couldn't hit shit with the carbine either. Then the bolt handle fell off and we had to search through the grass for it. Let's just say that they lived up to my expectations.
I wish I had known we'd be doing some shooting, Ida brought some fun stuff besides my 9 subcompact CC gun. Not the best thing for target shooting with +p HST's.
On the up side, I got to shoot a Bersa Thunder 380. I was pretty impressed with it. Felt good in my hand and it was pretty darned accurate too. I was knocking over beer cans at about 20 yds. I'd consider getting one if it didn't mean I'd have one more caliber to buy ammo for.

blame the carpenter not the hammer. A little bird told me that Every one else was cloverleafing the 10 ring because they were never exposed to a silky smooth kimber trigger. Just say it, there were no FTF FTE and the bolt handle flew off from bump firing the carbine too much.

I know a person that has 5 Hi-Points and he likes them. We let him shoot other guns so he knows what good ones are, but he likes Hi-points.
As to the Bersa, he never said it was the best ever made. It's just nice. I have one and like it. It shoots a good as my PPK/S and the other .380's I've shot.
No, it's not the King of the .380, but when I use good ammo, it has never failed.20 years USN - OSC

We used to fill the front tires of the old Massey with calcium to act as a counterweight...until I duct taped a c45 to front hook. I can pull stumps all day without any wheel lift.

Did you guys empty those beer cans before shooting them?
