I've toyed with one of the older ones. The mag catch was seriously a piece of plastic ON THE BOTTOM of the pistol that just held the mag in. At least they've improved it some over the years. Haha.
I don't have one, and can afford to say I don't want one. I have shot a .40 though. It functioned fine, but lacked accuracy. Due to its funny shape I'd imagine. However, I think they are the most patriotic gun made today.
The second amendment guarantees the right to keep and bear arms to everybody. Had we not such an "affordable" firearm, there would be a defacto breech of 2A rights barring anyone under a certain income level from defending themselves. I see the $200 tax stamp as a parallel situation.
Will I buy a high point? who knows, but not anytime soon...
But, whenever I see one, I'll salute it for broadening the base of armed citizens on which this country was founded. (Flag waves in background)
