I’ve mentioned it in passing a couple of times but it needs to be said in a bit more detail: this is an ugly freaking gun. Now, there’s a bit of an elephant in the gun range here. That heavy, ugly slide counters some of the muzzle flips from the shot. It’s a subtle difference from an inertia based system but it’s still notable because there’s another advantage to having that big, top-heavy slide: recoil. The slide is very heavy and this holds the slide in place until the pressure of the expanding gases moves the slide back to cycle the next cartridge in. This gun is sturdy and even rated for +P ammunition (something that turns out to be rare among inexpensive guns).Įven though the slide is made of a zinc-like alloy, it is very heavy and strong enough that I feel like I could probably build a deck using this thing as a hammer.įunctionality wise, these guns use a blowback system. This doesn’t mean it’s some flimsy NERF gun, though. The most expensive Hi-Point pistol has an MSRP of $199 and can be found in stores for around $150 and under. This pistol is designed around a particular concept: being an inexpensive and decent pistol.Įverything from the design to the materials is to keep costs down and they certainly did a good job of that. 45 JHPįirst, a little bit about the Hi-Point line. I’m going to let you know right off the bat that this gun was very surprising.
