Inb4 religion...Whats is a good reason why you havent armed yourself? With everything going on around us, it might benefit the world as a whole for you to equip yourself with an equalizer.
Go buy a cheap pistol at the very least and learn to put rounds on target. We need all the backup we can get.
Whats wrong with Hi-points?!?!?! :P:P:P lol. I do have a hi-point carbine that I actually love. It was cheap like $250 before Covid. And it's great to teach newbies on because its basically point and shoot. Not much going on, little recoil because it weights like 8 lbs @_@. But accurate as all shit. The handguns are terrible though. Not very ergonomic whatso ever.
Hi-Point for the win! I love these guns!
Yeah a buddy of mine has two hipoints, .45 and 9mm, they are fun to shoot and work reasonably well.
If I wasn't fixed up on such things I might break down and get one just for a Truck gun. But no hicap mags, and yeah I've seen the stuck together mag-things.
Long ago I picked up .30 Carbines, less than 200 each, so there's Truck gunz. Then after that bought a Mini-14 for less than 250.
I carry daily and would not carry a 'cheap' handgun, if your Life truly might depend on it it's worth the upgrade to have dependability. And dependable doesn't have to be expensive, 500 bucks get's it done. That's one reason I'm a Ruger fan, they are dependable, accurate, indestructable and not expensive, and tend to eat everything you feed them.
