    Not everybody can afford a Sig or maybe a ruger.

    It's the American way to fill a nitch, a guy just barely scraping by can afford a hi-point to protect his family. But the f*cking yuppies will have something to say about it while they buy their fn, hk and a number of other high price firearms.

    I Don't own a hi-point, that's because i can afford the firearms i want!

    for all you yuppies, sometimes it not what you want, sometimes it's what you can afford!!!

    a man can protect his family with a stick but he doesn't stand much of a chance in today world..

    By the way hi-point is American made which results in feeding American families.

    Then again your shopping decisions are all about YOU!

    hi-point = affordable self-defense
    You can find used Glocks for under 400.00 but beware that puts you into gun snob cataglory.

    As other have said, pick up a used Ruger for under 300.00 and avoid being a snob.

    I truely don't know why anyone would expect much from a hundred and thirty three dollar handgun. if that's understood then what's the point of making fun?

    Everybody should beable to afford protection, hi-point makes it so..

    $146 and another $20-35 for transfer.

    Used guns make it affordable also.

    When I was a FFL, I sold more than one person a firearm at cost, and one below cost because they needed a firearm for protection due to various reasons.

    I'd get one of those damn JHP .45s to stash somewhere if I wasn't so afraid that my girlfriend would pick it up and try to dry her hair with it.

Every low volume, low end gun store, which were more plentiful 30 years ago than they are now, had many of the product line on display, and they did fly out the door. Mr. Jennings and his ring of fire guns had a higher share of the market than the Hi-Point. Of course, the number of pocket pistols available at the time were not as plentiful as now. With the development of higher caliber pocket carriers, the Ring of Fire Guns would probably not survive in this current market, unlike Hi Point which is not only surviving, but expanding their line. I am not aware of the enemies of firearm ownership attacking the Hi Point like the ring of fire guns, which they were able to sue out of business.

    If I was given control over that company I would turn out a decent, high quality for low price pistol that actually looked good and was used for most random murders throughout the country from now on.

    I hear they also work well for driving nails when you can't find your hammer.

    That's funny, but you do have a (hi) point.
