There is literally nothing wrong with this pistol.
Is it already summer, I thought elementary schools had another week.

It's ok bro. If you can't admit I'm right, I'm happy to let you post pictures in my thread.

Newfag here. What is this fuck ugly pistol and why should I avoid it
>>30015410
if there is no discussion, does the proposition win by default or is the decision suspended?
It's an ugly piece of shit. Otherwise, you're right.
>>30015344
It's not expensive enough to satisfy my efo.
>>30015497
The former, although the subject has been debated to death on /k/
>>30015498
Fuck off.
>>30015344
You're right.
It's really not that bad. That's the only reason it's popular. There are other pistols that you can buy for like $150 or less, but they're so shitty that they aren't popular at all.
>heavy as fuck because lol straight blow back
>c9 8 round standard and literally ALL after market mags are garbage.
>pros
>one of the best warranties
>shoots most of the time
It's a budget pistol for a reason. My dad gave me a C9 a few years ago.
>>30015606
OP here. Thanks. I didn't know why everyone hated the pistol, so I posted a bait thread to get a straight answer.
>>30015344
>40 short & weak
Found the problem.
>>30015584
Seconded. It's the best of cheap handguns.
>>30015606
>no slide release lever
seriously, though, would this not be the #1 choice for a home defense pistol?
>rail for light
>reliable enough to go through a full mag
>cheap as fuck, who cares if the cops never get it back to you
>>30015702
What?
I don't know about the other ones, but the c9's safety works as one.
>>30015646
Naw Nigga, that's the problem solver. Glawk 40.
>>30015798
>>30015491
It's a .40 caliber Glock from their Problem Solver line. The Problem Solver line is generally heavily disliked and ridiculed on /k/ because of the sacrifices in quality Glock makes to make the line more affordable. If you ever decide to buy a Glock make sure to tell the guy at the counter you want a standard model and not one of the Problem Solver models.
>>30015344
Its a working handgun for 150 bucks. You're right there is nothing wrong with it. The company doesn't have the best quality control but that just means that you dont get consistent quality. If you get one that has issue, they will fix/replace it under their very generous warranty.

Rerolling for college.
I had a bad opinion on it for a while but after a conversation I had with an Eastern Outfitters dealer and an article in American Rifleman I read during a recent deployment my opinion changed...a bit. They are a good cheap starter gun to learn on and not blow your budget if you are poor. The article was trying to go the murika route by saying the 2nd amendment is for everyone and not just those who can afford it.

Cons:
>Heavier than most pistols of similar make.
>Bulky and not very ergonomic, even though it tries and fits SOME peoples hands.
>10 round mags (9 for .45) only and promags don't work worth shit.
>Virtually nonexistent aftermarket.
>Cheap materials.
>Marginal accuracy
Pros:
>Cheap
>Reliable
>10 round mag limit compliant
>Fits some peoples hands perfectly
Verdict:
If you like a cheap as fuck brick gun that is more reliable than accurate... go for it.

Durable in terms of it can fire.
Reliable and accurate? That's up for question.
wanted one but like almost 300 at LGS after tax and fee
compared it to the glock and not even that bad, besides the obvious shit huge metal design
CA fag

>>30015344
this is true. but there are pistols with nothing wrong with them, that are a million times better for hundreds of reasons
>>30015344
It's ugly as fuck god damn. It's a wannabe hi point
>>30015344
Try to disassemble it for cleaning and get back to me.
>>30017583
>wannabe hi point
>a completely unbiased opinion on the hi point
The customer service and warranty are great. It breaks? It fails? Send it in for a repaired or new one. That does say a lot about the confidence of a company. The company has never been about making a pretty or fine tuned weapon, it's always been about making a gun anybody can afford. We are also talking about a straight blowback pistol that is p+ rated, that has to say something too as nobody dares to make anything like that. In truth though it's not about a gun you can stroke your dick over when you get home, it's about peace of mind.
Are you concerned about the crime rising in your town, but don't really want to travel miles down the gun guru road just to sleep easier at night? Fine, get a hi point.
Are you a concerned parent? Worried about the need to even the odds but just want to get something for peace of mind? Sure! Get a hi point.
Want more out of a gun? Want a tool of a certain trade? Want something you will use to the fullest instead of just when you need it? Probably should look somewhere else.
Not to say that the hi point isn't a decent firearm for what it is. Most of the people shouting about the high point being shit are just fetishists for a certain product they bought, or pretend to have bought, or fantasize about buying when they are old enough or have enough money from their fast food job to get.
It works for what it is, the cheapest peace of mind for someone who never plans to use it.
The argument is over.
>>30016856
>>30015344
You're right, it's just that many other pistols are simply better.
>>30015344
Ugly as fuck gun.
Shit trigger.
so brick like, that it makes a glock look aesthetic as fuck.
If that's all you can afford, well it's better than nothing.
>>30015344
Nope.
Yes, it's ugly.
Yes, it's direct blowback.
Yes, it has a small mag capacity.
Yes, it's cheap.
But it works.
You push the bang switch and it pops off a round. Erry time.
Ford Fiestas are ugly and horrid too, but if you gotta get to work and don't have a lotta dough... there you have it.
>car people, just shut up and humor me on this one.
>>30018488
Roll again
>>30018398
>all other pistols are simply better.
ftfy
>>30015362
First post best post. Thanks for the laughs anon.
>>30015344
Pretty much, only issue is that it's too heavy and has limited capacity but other than that, its a fine pistol for poorfags and richfags alike
literally nothing wrong with OP's face. doesn't mean anybody wants to look at it
>>30015344
Except that it looks like it came from radioshack.
>>30015344
No, there is not. it performs the duties of a pistol well enough. There are more refined, better made designs on the market, but there is nothing inherently wrong with a Hi-Point pistol.
>>30017895
Adding My 2 cents to a good response
2nd Amendment should not be limited because you are poor. Folks need to be able to defend themselves even if they do not have a lot of spending money. I hear they work reliably. They provide to a need. They give a opportunity for folks who do not want to blow a lot of cash on a gun to see if it's for them. Just take it to the range when you first get it and run it thru it's paces. Make sure it works, that you know how to shoot it and keep it where you need it.
>>30015344
>It's clunky and doesn't sit right in the hand
>difficult to chamber, even for the ice giant hickhok45 and his son
>prone to jamming
>aesthetically one of the ugliest guns I've seen
Not only will I sage you for making me reply, I hope one day when you are in danger and you pull out your problem solver, it jams and you die, not because you have it, but because you stated it doesn't have any problems. Every gun has its problems. From surplus tokeravs being not drop safe and makerovs having a heavy trigger pull, to glocks blowing up in your hand and five seveN having snowflake ammo that is overpriced as fuck
>>30017895
>>30019513
This but the argument I'm making>>30019550 isn't that someone shouldn't get it, it's that someone shouldn't say it doesn't have its faults
>>30019550
No guns git out reeeeeeeeee
>>30019593
Not disagreeing
Nothing is all perfect. Everything has a drawback.
Something that works not so great is better than nothing.
>>30015344
The price.
The highpoint will usually work.
Is that a gamble you want?
It's very affordable.
Have discipline and save just a little more. The ruger lcp is often less then 100 more. The sccy is about 275 at a gun show. A used glock is about 350 to 400.
What is your life worth?
A pistol for self defense is life support.
>>30015344
Hey we already have a humor thread up.
>people who have to scavenge together $200 for a gun only to never shoot it because they can't afford ammo
I'm not saying price directly correlates to quality but I don't see the point of cheaping out on a gun if ammo for 1-2 range trips costs as much as the gun did.

>>30015344
my highpoint .45 is dead accurate at 50 yards, bought it used covered in scratches for 80 dollars, has not jammed/misfired once in 500 rounds maybe, has been cleaned once. Does not feel good to shoot because the bottom of the magazine extends past the bottom of the handle and is not totally tight and moves slightly, my friends was the same. I owned the 9mm highpoint as well but It was stolen by Negroes on the way to a camping trip.
>>30021120
alternatively for the cost one of those two shooting trips you can buy a whole bonus gun to take with you.
>>30015344
Other than it's heavy as fuck all and it's only single stack.
>>30015344
I know, that's why we get pissed at it. It does its job sufficiently
>>30015823
I erased the first word so people can use it as a template
Have fun people.
>>30015344
it heavy for puny 9mm feels like double stack .45
>>30015344
>>30015394
God that thread was legendary
>>30015362
>1000kmL
What did he mean by this?
>>30029578
1,000,000 mL [sic]
A hyperbole, since 5 gallons would only be ~19,000 mL
>>30029964
It's a little over 2.5 US gallons of fluid. 10,000 mL.
>>30015344
For the price, it's a functional and accurate gun. Heater of choice for ghetto boyz and gang bangers everywhere, where everything that isn't a revolver is a glock.
>>30015394
Oh god I remember this.
>mfw he actually did it.
>>30015344
It's unpleasant to hold, like a brick wrapped in plastic
fat, heavy, single stack mags, straight blowback
but worst of all about hi point handguns
is that they're handguns
>>30015344
Yes there is.
Have you ever felt one?
Balance a brick on top of a grip. Thats the gun.
It's a little ugly isn't it?
>>30015491
Hi-point. It's a thug gun. Good fucking luck running more than a couple of mags without it jamming.
It's a throwaway gun used by inner city people, kill someone with it throwaway , and the cycle repeats it self.
Any one who actually buys one As a cc or HD and not for shits and giggles are dumb af.
>>30015344
It hates hollowpoints, has a low capacity, and no aftermarket. Also is a brick.
Outside of that, 10/10. Also I still want one just for beating on random shit and abusing it without feeling bad.
>>30019513
To me the, 'well the hipoint is cheap/affordable' argument loses weight when you put into against the used market. For just 50 bucks more you can have a better pistol.
I suppose you enjoy colt 45.
