I think it looks a lot better than the older version.

The mag is goofy looking, basically single stack then it tapers out to double stack half way down.

The magazine looks very similar to the double stack makarov magazines, for the exact same reason, converting a single stack design to a double stack mag.

You've pretty much described every Hi-Point ever made.

Ill still probably get one but the excitement is gone

I think they're worth buying as an investment. In 20 years it will be a collectable. Worthless, but still collectable because of what it is. I don't even know what yeet means.

Yeet verb; to kill, destroy, obliterate

In internet slang it has a different meaning and this is probably why Yeet cannon won the Hi-Point internet naming competition.

Yeet is a slang word that functions broadly with the meaning *to throw,* but is especially used to emphasize forcefulness and a lack of concern for the thing being thrown. (You don*t yeet something if you*re worried that it might break.) Yeet is also used as an interjection, most often to express excitement or enthusiasm.

As these examples make clear, yeet is being used broadly as a synonym of throw, and is applied especially when the throwing is forceful and includes more than a whiff of *good riddance!* along with it. When you yeet something, you*re not worried about how it lands.
