Hi-Point 45 JHP - Not a Pretty Gun

My wife - the big sweetie that she is - had this waiting for me when I came home from work the other day.


Hi-Point 45 ACP<br/>http://www.hi-pointfirearms.com/handguns/45acp/hi_point_45acp.html


Haven't been able to shoot it yet.  And anyway, I'm not the kind of person who obsessively writes about guns, calibers, types of ammunition etc., etc.

But this is a sure-nuff interesting weapon.  Very functional looking.  Which has an elegance all of it's own.  The die-cast construction makes it feel like an actual tool, not a fetish for camo-clad yahoos.

When you release the slide that big ol' recoil spring slams the slide home with a loud CLACK and a lot of authority.

Subtle, it ain't.
