Be afraid...

Well, that's how some view them. A CGN sponsor (Kodiak Outpost) has brought in some Hi-Points in .45ACP and .40S&W for $249 (free shipping). I'd be more inclined to bite if the 9mm carbines were available. Only issue is that Kodiak has the same policy as Lever as regards warranty issues - go to the manufacturer. Though Hi-Point replaces guns virtually no questions asked, I don't know how that would work cross-border. Ugliest guns ever made, of course, but I am tempted...somebody stop me!

Go ahead brother! Several years ago I won't buy a Glock because I thought they are ugly but I have one now. Who knows sometimes later the high point may get more fans than Norincos. Dollors for Dallors can't be beat.

I read a report about them in a gun rag a few years back.

They indicated that it's ugly, but it does work well. Reliable and functional. They shot 3.5" groups at 25 yards. Not bad for a cheapy.

That being said, I'll likely never buy one. It didn't get hit with an ugly stick - it got smoked by the nasty train.

Either way - kudos to Kodiak for bringing in a new toy!
 
Yeah, not the prettiest horse in the stable, but it's simple and inexpensive.

I've had a lot of inquiries about the carbines. I'd love to bring some in, but they're prohibited due to a "bullpup" stock. Unless the classification changes it's a no-go.

I don't have any mags in stock right now, but I will look to bring some in asap.

K.O.
 
buy one and throw it in the box with rations and preserves,..almost like a henry survival .22 rifle.
 
I've been wanting one of these for a long, long time.

They are ugly as sin and they were only available in the US. Thanks to Kodiak for bringing these in.

I'm ordering one. Post - Haste. In .45. Because I'm gangster.



Man, I'm pumped for one of these.

Doesn't look like a bullpup stock to me, as the mag is in the grip and the breech is not way at the back of the rifle.

"California" stocks. (They are not allowed pistol grips)

The Hi Points have to be big (and ugly) they are a blowback design. The slides need to be heavy to slow them down. Reasonably accurate because they have a fixed barrel.

Would I buy one? Nope.
 
HA - SUCKA'S

I just got myself a .45

The first time I shoot it, I'm going to hold it sideways, because that's how I roll.

Peace out, hommies.


In all seriousness, this gun was (HA! I can say "was" now) on my list of guns to buy. I never thought these would come to Canada, and now I get one.

Who knew such an ugly gun could put such a big smile on my face? :D
