I have a couple of HP carbines (995ts, 4595TS) and am very happy with them. I've been researching HP handguns and came across this HP C9 torture test. Looks quite impressive for a very low cost handgun.

A friend has a Hi-Point that I have shot. I wouldn't hesitate to have one bedside since if ever it was used it would most likely be taken away and I wouldn't miss it. That being said, it's not a "fun" gun to shoot. Gets the job done in an uncomfortable manner.

 

YMMV.

I doubt if my Sig 226 could handle what they put that HP C9 through. Now I have to go watch the other 3 parts.

I always hear people trash HP, but as long as you know how to maintain the mechanism, it will serve you good. M16's problem during the vietnam war is cleaning, now years later the same mechanism ar15 is doung good ciz we know how to maintain then properly
