I still love my Hi Points, but the whole boat-anchor thing was getting old (not that this one's much lighter). After hearing how much DEROS72 likes his Tanfoglio, and then finding how how reasonable they were, I just had to get one for myself. Even the case this thing came in is cool, all velvet-lined with built in combo locks. Tanfoglio Witness, match model (can't resist the two-tone look), in .45ACP of course. Took it out to the range today and it shoots just as nice as Deros says. Put not quite 200 rounds thru it, my wife said she had a couple of jams while I wasn't there but I never had an issue. Real tack driver too, easily capable of shooting much better than I can aim it. On a whim, I was even able to put 10 rounds or so in a man-size target at 50 yards, shooting off hand without the sights tweaked quite right (left my #@$%$!! leatherman at home, so no screwdriver). Now I just need to find a proper holster, the Bianchi I got for my HiPoint 45 works ok, but it sticks out too far for my liking.
(Oh and my wife is demanding I add that she kicked my arse with the new AR too.)
