[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3139032, member: 15054"] Funny I 3 semi auto pistols 2 are Hi-Point 45's and I got them because I never had or even shot a semi auto hand gun and the warranty and price was excellent and fact that the barrel length was legal for deer hunting. I have no reason to carry a gun unless hunting. so the small stuff has no interest to me. The other semi auto is a Phoenix 22 which is more accurate than that Heritage rough rider 22 revolver. I sold the Heritage because accuracy was Horrible. My 45's are very accurate. Took 1 deer with 1 shot at 47 paces with one of my 45 Hi-Points. Another funny thing is I had never shot any semi auto hand gun until I got the Hi-Point and some buddies ended up with other guns that were semi auto and they feel small and cheap in my hands like a tiny toy and I do not like that. One friend has an old 1911 put together with various parts and it is heavy and has a fat feeling grip and I do like the feel of it. No more accurate than my 45 though. Another friend has a Kimber custom 2 45 and it had bad issues where they stamped the barrel above the chamber. It dented in the barrel where the round chambers and would stick with 98% of the ammo you tried in it. I honed it out there and it works perfect now. Only thing I do not like about my HI-Points is the barrel groove diameter. I slugged both of them and they are .4535" So I can't hot rod a lead round unless I like tumbling bullets. and i must use soft lead so it bumps up quick and seals off the space. But soft lead is a non issue as it works very well at killing game. And it still passes through more milk jugs than any 308 or 30-06 round I have tried. [/QUOTE]
