    Mosin Nagant questions.. (and mounting scope)

    Not sure why you fellas are having problems with the scope mounts moving. Mine is dialed in at 1-2" groupings at 100 yards. I've put hundreds of rounds through it with no problem. I personally can't fathom a better hunting rifle investment for $250.............. just my thoughts from the...

    Mosin Nagant questions.. (and mounting scope)

    Here is mine..... Original cost $89 (picked up from J&G Sales so there was no transfer fee). Tula stamp / round reciever. Swapped out the orginal stock to synthetic ($50). Modified (extended) existing bolt. Installed scope mount ($50). Scope $65. Tula stamp / round reciever. :D:D:D

    NAA Mini Revolver?

    My .22 mag is a daily front pocket carry. Why? Because I live 9 miles from the sun, here in AZ. Sometimes it's not the only gun I carry, but it's ALWAYS carried.

    Picked up a NIB 9mm earlier this year. Best $150 purchase I have ever made.

    Hi-Point 9mm

    Simply put...... the best $150.00 I ever spent on a gun, when I bought that ugly 9mm. Exceeded my expectations. I will definately get another flavor in the future.

    The Hi-Point Throwdown

    You got that one right..... What difference does it make whether the gun cost $10 or $10K? Break in and assimilation are NECESSARY in any context. To think an HP requires more "break in" than another gun, based on the context the poster was using, is irresponsible and just plain ignorant.

    I'm well aware of the difference, but hey.....thanks......I guess:confused::confused:

    The Hi-Point Throwdown

    Point taken, but I still don't equate the actual failure rate to be markedly different than other pistols. In any case, I'd hope anyone putting that many rounds through their pistol would be wearing safety glasses:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleyes:

    Taurus model 66 OWNERS

    I own a 65 and 66, blued 4 inch barrels. They have had thousands of rounds through them and have been very reliable. I had the 65 back to the factory after about 200 rounds because of an advancing cylinder. The factory had it back to me in about 5 weeks, and it has been trouble free since...

    The Hi-Point Throwdown

    Tuner, With all due respect to your point, it appears that the overwhelming majority of actual Hi Point owners claim to have put thousands of rounds through their respective pistols, and claim to have experienced an extrememly low failure rate. My own conversations with other HP owners, and gun...

    That's probobly the case with most of us Hi Point owners.

    The Hi-Point Throwdown

    Excellent point. I talked with a guy at the jobsite today that owns a HiPoint, and he fits your scenario perfectly. He owns one gun for HD. He's been to a range exactly 1 time in his life (last year when he bought his HP 9mm). This guy appeared like he could afford a variety of choices ( I...

    Buying a Hi Point

    Well said. I imagine the VAST majority of us HP owners would say we like the gun, and would also recommend it to others.....period. I personally will be picking up another one.

    The Hi-Point Throwdown

    I'd like to know how many "average citizens" that have conciously taken it apon themselves to be prepared for armed conflict, have suffered harm based on the failure of the gun they chose to defend themselves with.........?? Seriously............

    The Hi-Point Throwdown

    "Clearly the pistol is perceived as being big, ugly, crude, and cheap" Perception of looks.... I'll give you that based on personal preferences. Perception of crude and cheap.... obviously those who have owned/used them overwhemingly refute that sort of statement.

    Buying a Hi Point

    "Also, the suggestions of all these other guns are "BETTER" is simply not true. Better at what?????? That is the key question. Too many people simply don't know what they're talking about." Well put........ I'm one of those guys who was prompted to buy a HP 9 simply because of the posts in...

    The Hi-Point Throwdown

    "Pretty much 'cause it's ugly... " I still don't see where it's any uglier than a host of other more expensive autoloaders. Then again, to my eye, beauty comes with a "wheel" not a magazine. In any case, my point was the gun deserves a little more respect than it appears to get. It's a...

    The Hi-Point Throwdown

    I'm curious as to why there seems to be some propensity to bash or denegrade the HP product? I don't follow alot of posts, so I admit to being rather green to this sort of dialouge. I just don't get it. It seems like there are alot of really bad guns out there that merit some degree of...

    The Hi-Point Throwdown

    As I previously posted in, I picked up a HP 9mm just because of the debate generated in this thread. I had the opportunity to try it out this week end. It performed very adequately IMO. Aim, pull the trigger and it goes boom and makes a hole close to where I was aiming. Cycled through cheap...
