You are looking for a gun to use in the last resort in defense of your life, or someone else. Get something that will work, what is your life worth?

Is it worth more than saving 300$.? Maybe you should stick with a ball bat until you can buy a used Glock or something. I am guessing but I bet you can buy a gun for 3-400, that is a known good gun. Glock, S&W, Springfield.

If you can't save anymore money, then get the Hi-point. But, I would recommend saving a little more and getting one you really like. I shot a HI point one time and if the purpose of your purchase is to squeeze the trigger when needed then it will work. But if you buy a gun you should enjoy shooting it also, and they are not that comfortable to hold.

No way Jose.

You are better off buying a good quality used gun than buying a new cheap one.

I have the 9 and the 45 shot hundreds of rounds 1 or 2 jams on the 45 with cheap ammo. Weird thing is anything I have shot with either one has ended up with holes in it, maybe a little heavy but then again so is my ruger 44 super redhawk.
But that was of course before ALL my firearms sank to the bottom of the bay

Personally if I was going with a 9mm I would go with the ruger lc9s. Great gun. Paid 360$. Haven't had one jam yet with mine. Have shot 200 rounds through it so far.

I heard a lot of reviews stating magazine issues with the high point. They are big and heavy. Not the prettiest gun so I pass on it.

don't shoot wolf or tulammo ammo in any gun except a revolver you don't care about. try to get a good used gun . if you don't have the funds don't buy new. mike w

yes, IF it is all you can afford. the old hi-points had problems, they now are guaranteed to function. I have heard mostly decent things about function. ergonomics? looks? maybe not. like the guys said, if you can put away 350 or more you can get a good brand, but from what I have seen the hi-points tend to work, and if it is all you can afford then 150$ hi-point beats throwing rocks...
