any of you guys tried this? I saw it in another thread on here.
Anyway, i decided to test the hi point I just bought, so I stuck a pen in the barrel, pointed it at the ceiling with the gun cocked, and pulled the trigger, and the pen flew and smacked the ceiling, which i was like, good the firing pin operates.
So I went to show my wife, whose gun it is, and I pulled the trigger, but the pen didn't go anywhere. I was like WTF? so I pulled the gun apart and couldn't find anything wrong.
I tried it again and still nothing. So I pulled the pen out of the barrel, and that's when I noticed..............................
A hole in the back of the pen. It wasn't launching it because the firing pin had punched a hole in the pen. I felt stupid, grabbed another pen, and fired one into the ceiling. It punched a hole in that one too.
I only spent $50 on this gun, as it had no magazine. I called hi point, and they're sending me a mag, extractor and firing pin assembly for free. Now to verify that it has a FTF FTE problem
I like spare parts.
