Figured I'd post a new Hi Point thread so we could have a poll of what Hi Point we love the most. Hit the poll and continue discussion!

Hi Point's rule!!!:celebrate:celebrate:celebrate:celebrate:celebrate:celebrate:celebrate

One of the best 9mm long-gun, in term of fun. Over 2,000 rounds of 9mm in the 1st month...can be replace very cheaply unlike my Marlin Camp 9. :dude:

I hate to be a party pooper, but in no particular order...

.40 S&W Hi-Point carbines have been available for years. The new TS model is projected for release in May but is already available online.

Hi-Point has been releasing a .45 ACP carbine for years now. One day they might even do it. Don't hold your breath.

Pro-Mag has a 15 round magthat works well in the old style 995 as well as the 995TS. The new style mag will work in an older gun, but the old style mag won't work in a new gun. Mine should be here any day.

Have a nice day.

Glad someone here has the carbine. Do you know of any after market mags you can get for it that hold more than 10 rounds?

promag makes a 15 rounder, but the general consensus among owners is that they suck. really bad.

Really? How many of those polled have tried the new and improved version? My guess is zero. Everyone I know who has tested/used the new style mags has nothing but good to say about them... Myself included.

I almost purchased a new C9 before realizing there's no chance in Hell I'll be able to conceal this pistol without a shoulder rig. I'm just to small of a guy. Anyone can demonstrate concealed carry with a C9? IWB holster in the small of the back seems like the best bet?

Jeez Hi Point... slim down your 9 for us.

i conceal my c9. sometimes carrying OWB in a paddle holster, sometimes carrying IWB at 4 o'clock, or even 3 o'clock. it works better for me at 4 o'clock, it fits against my body better. its not easy, but its not too hard either.
