....and I've had a .50 M2 puke on me but that doesn't make the ma duece a piece of sh#t. It just means that one failed. The point of adding that was to answer your comment about people not having shot hi-points. I have, and so have plenty of others, and they've sucked.
Statistics and probability are more relevant. Take a pile of Glock 23s and a pile of Hi-points...shoot 'em up in a course of fire that mimics common self defense/gunfight scenarios. I guarantee you get more failures out of the Hi-point pile. Maybe someone here has the time and $$ to make that happen, it'd be fun to see how it plays out. Sort of like the IDPA challenge test...but bigger.

I remember reading once that manufacturing costs for a Glock are somewhere in the neighborhood of $75. I can't imagine that a Hi Point can beat that by too much. $150 vs $500 is a big difference for something that essentially costs the same to manufacture. It makes me wonder in where all the difference is. Profit, QC, advertising. Now of course there are a lot more Glocks produced annually than Hi Points, so it's not necessarily apples v apples but still.

Really? Law enforcement and military use them because they are better. You don't think they would use a quality firearm?
That's was a classic statement bud. Your still not proving anything.

The 2 times I have shot the HP, I had around 15 failures. My 4 glocks with a total of 4000 rounds down them, zero failures. Including the gen4 23. It has 1500 rounds down, not one problem. It has not even been cleaned in about 700 rounds. Don't assume things.
lol? really? like i stated before. the only problem with the hi points jamming or ftf is the mag. its real easy to pry open the mag a little with some pliers. try that on your 3rd time shooting a hi point.

Sure. Third time. Won't happen. I enjoy shooting guns, not fixing them.

Shooting a high point is like kissing a fat girl just not into if I can avoid it
that's funny. Almost as funny as the HP fanboy defending them!
