Hi-Point - do you own one ?

I bought a JCP .40 caliber new, $160.00 out the door. Good shooter, accurate as hell. Ate everything I threw in it. Bought more mags from the factory. Couldn't get them to feed worth a darn. Deburred the inside of the stamped metal ears, set them to the same widths as the good mag and they all work fine. Especially good to shoot the hotter rounds with, the extra weight of the slide helps keep you on target.

Wife liked it but wanted a 9mm. Friend of hers came up with a C9 compensated model for $150.00 with hard case, 8 round and ten round magazines and laser. Took the laser setup off. Shot it, had some light strikes so called the factory and had them send me a new firing pin, spring assembly, extractor key and spring and recoil spring. All they asked was the serial number and my address, had them in hand three days later. Can't beat that. If you send one in for warranty work they generally send you a new magazine for your trouble as well.

Biggest problem I have with them is they're too much fun to shoot...

I won't carry one concealed for one reason.. ok, two. They print too much, and the firing pin is under full spring tension when cocked. No firing pin block safety, so if the rear of the firing pin or the sear fail, it more than likely will discharge if there is a round in the chamber. Other than that, both mine are great shooters and reliable and I wouldn't hesitate to buy another.
