This is an ambidextrous tuckable IWB (inside the waistband) holster that can be adjusted for both height and cant. This is a very well made holster - a credible design from one of our most respected makers. Recently, I have been evaluating the DeSantis Vanquisher holster.

A SIG you have not mastered, or worse you don’t understand the manual of arms, isn’t going to help you in life or death situation. The Hi-Point C9 handled better than expected.Ī lot of folks are as interested in firearms as we were high school fire drills, but they realize they may need a handgun. Don’t use cheap ammo and maintain the piece. You are getting a pistol, when properly handled, will save your life. Do not have the expectation you are spending smart money and getting a Glock. I managed to break a few clay birds at about 15 yards simply plinking with the pistol. The previous owner had cocked the sight far to the left. A fully-adjustable rear sight allowed moving the point of impact to proper relation with the sights. A minor complaint was that the pistol fired to the left. A half-dozen different loads were tested and all functioned. The pistol is minimal but with good ammunition it functions. Accuracy Testing - 15 Yards, 5-Shot Group Load At 7 yards, the pistol will put a magazine load into a single rathole. That is better than expected and very decent. The results were more than acceptable for home defense with a 15-yard group of about 2.4 inches. I used every advantage in solidly locking the pistol down for accuracy testing. As mentioned, the Hi-Point seems to run best with stronger loads.Īs a final test, I fired the pistol from a solid, braced, benchrest firing position. I fired a magazine of Hornady American Gunner 124-grain +P without a problem. The pistol is heavier than the Glock, but the heavy slide gives us a jolt at the end of its travel. Recoil is - more or less - in the Glock 19 category. Note: When the slide is locked back, the firing pin protrudes by design, it isn’t stuck. Winchester 147-grain target loads were fine and demonstrated good accuracy. Fiocchi loads are usually a tad hotter than most but then CCI Blazer - both aluminum and brass case - worked well. The pistol does not like cheap underpowered loads or steel-cased ammunition. The pistol was caked in powder ash and debris. The single-action trigger is fairly simple in operation. I like a good experiment as much as anyone, but these loads would not have feed in a 1911 9mm either - of that, I am certain. A rather odd post involved the author trying to make improperly-sized lead bullet loads filled with black powder feed in the Hi-Point. Whether it was actually fired or not would be a question worth asking. I’ve got to give the pistol its due on that count.Ī fluff piece in the popular press credited the pistol with accuracy and reliability properties that it does not possess. Big and small hands, all found the safety a good feature. Every friend and family member who tried the Hi-Point safety found the safety to be ergonomic and positive in operation. One pundit roundly criticized the safety as difficult to reach. One was so dangerous that I was appalled. Some were so sad and unprofessional that I was embarrassed for the persons involved. When doing my research on the pistol, I ran across comments, statements, and video that gave me pause. If possible, I would keep an extra takedown pin on hand in case it is damaged or lost. Every handgun should be cleaned and lubricated every 300 rounds. Spraying the pistol down with aerosol cleaner only goes so far. The slide is then pulled rearward and off the frame. The slide is locked to the rear and a pin driven out. But then, maybe the pistol isn’t meant to be field stripped. Perhaps the pistol is safe enough unless it is dropped. I agree with this assessment, and this is a limiting factor in the use and carry of the pistol. The owner’s manual tells us never to carry the pistol chamber loaded. While bulky, the 9mm blowback design allows the use of an inexpensive manufacturing technique. It takes a heavier slide to maintain inertia against this pressure. The barrel is fixed, and the slide simply blows back off the barrel once the bullet exits the barrel and pressure abates. The manual safety was positive in operation.
