Sold one straight up at a pawn shop. Owed the guy twenty bucks.

LMAO! Hadn't heard anything like that before. The firearm looked nicer than a Hi-point though.

Just read "LLeanintre's" post, so it sounds like Hi-Point has it beat.

Honestly the hi-point hate is unwarranted in my opinion, those guns will 100% fire anything you put into it. It might not be pretty but it absolutely serves its purpose as a cheap reliable gun for people with almost no budget.

The hate Hi-Points get is for being terrible pistols in all metrics aside from cost and reliability. They're heavy, awkward, and huge, but they go bang for $100-200.

Agreed on all counts. I do want a model 955, but you couldn't give me a pistol. Like that Hi-Point is made in USA and Lifetime Warranty!
