Yeah, you read that right.
I can't wait to get it back. I'm probably going to mount a Holosun on it. Though an actual RMR would be pretty funny... They've had it since October - but mostly because I fucked it all up trying to install their 9mm Rat Rod trigger in it - it's a .45... I thought I could make it work. I couldn't... So when I realized I was screwed I sent it in for trigger work and an RMR cut. The trigger work yielded a great discovery though - they re-engineered their 9mm trigger to work in the .45 and say it will be available on their website soon - for those of you who can't help but Here's their sweet slow mo video of it all done. FACEBOOK VIDEO Edit - I got it back this morning! Time to hit the range like a baller... (Is that the right use of the word? It feels right...) |

To explain why they had it so long...
1. I didn't really have a rush on it and made that quite clear. (Though when I mailed it in, I sent a detailed letter of how much it meant to me... and I've been sending them pictures and things of it right along, some even with music to express my loneliness without it...) 2. They started out trying to 3d print a cage for the cam bar and trigger pin to run in to correct it slipping off - but then decided to re-work the whole trigger bar system. So it was like my gun was donated to science for a bit - which I found pretty cool. Here's some more pics - if you guys missed THE THREAD where I fit the Red Ball carbine mags to it. |

I promise to finish the Mosin I found In the Pond thread soon....
Yeah right... Wait... am I typing what I'm thinking again... Fuck. |

The Ultimate Hi-Point |

Usually, I am curious, maybe a little jelly of your finds.
This has had the opposite effect, and makes me question your sanity??? WTF!! Does Mrs borderbacon know of this perversion???? That is some scary shit. LOL |

I may bring it to quals tomorrow and demonstrate all the exercises with that. |

Quoted: vert da furk? View Quote That is the exact reaction I'm looking for. I'm going to shoot some action pistol with it this Summer if they aren't cancelled because of COVID... I want the only sick thing on the range to be my Hi-Point. I brought it out in a range case with my two Les Baers last Summer - opened the case, popped the Turtle Dick into the Day-glo holster and closed the case. The looks I got were priceless. |

If the effect you were going for was “homicide weapon sprayed with Luminol” then I’d say it was a success.

Damn, that thing is ugly. I don't mean the pistol, I am referring to the hideous color.

View Quote That is exactly how it went. My buddy that owns the trading post was like - "WTF? You pick up a custom Les Baer one week and buy this the next... dude... you make no sense." |

That shadow.
Also, that’s about as weird as one can get. You probably spent way more on having your Hi-Point customized than it actually cost. |

View Quote Trading post. KTP carried that abomination? They've really moved up in the world. Decades ago when I was last in there it was wall to wall fudd guns upstairs. Not much of anything else. |

View Quote Not KTP. That's like 6 hours South. I've always found jack-all in there. Expensive and not worth the trip. No way they would have something as freakin' sweet as this puppy. |

I have the strangest urge for a Gen 1 9mm HP Carbine.
I had one and gave it to a relative 25 years ago who was having ex-husband problems. Damn it shot well. |

I read custom Hi Power then scrolled down, I thought I was having a stroke.
