Wish I could be excited for you. Those are two handguns I'd never own. My background and instructor certs is for combat-efficient guns and those (especially the Hi Point) are not even close.

My dad is all a-giggitty about Hi Point, including the 9mm carbine. I groan heavily and roll my eyes any time he mentions that pot metal POS.

But to each his own!

spitfire, there is metal in the hi point, I think it weighs more then the renegade I just built.

Corey the whole gun must be made from chromemoly steel .....

no, whole barrel has some type of black coating inside and out, if anyone has seen the guts of a hi point knows. the barrel is mounted to the frame with about a 1"x2" metal block. that in my mind is a pita to clean.

Thing with all those tupperware guns is that if you really shoot a lot they dont last very long

I wonder how many of the IPSA shooters putting 10 to 30 thousand rounds a year thru their "tupperware" Glocks, S&W's, SA's, Rugers and the like, might agree with your statement ? Kinda makes you go Hmmmm.

I cannot see them last as long as the 1911 or a HP Browning. My .45 was made just after the war and is still going strong
