    The Hi-Point is decent little starter pistol. It will run hollow points with a polished feed ramp. It has a lifetime warranty so it will always be fixed for free and the service is almost unmatche din the industry. The gun is heavy for it's size and does not conceal well. It is a great plinker, truck/boat gun. Something to get as a backup hidden somewhere in the home. I would not carry it as a primary weapon.

    To the guy who thinks an Ar-15 is better for home protection then a handgun. Are you trying to hold off a group of armed individuals? Have you ever tried to clear a dark house with an AR? A handgun is much easier to use within the home with much less chance of overpenetration into your neighbor's bedroom. If you want real home protection get a 18.5" shotgun. Ever seen what a slug does to it's target? 00 buck would be ideal, and 9 pellets to the chest will not allow them to get away.

    Exactly what I was thinking. You have to look like a criminal to have it taken away from you and have the #'s ran. lol Worst I have had is just keep your hands close to the wheel. I would have done it out of courtesy anyway.

    By the way the mags I got from you shawAg3n feed fine. I always worry with mags. Even new ones can give you problems.

    Haven't many good things about those 40 rd mags. Most of them jam too much for me. What do you have in the way of .223 or 5.56 and how much. I am always looking for a good deal.

    Just go out and have fun with it. like you say $150 so what if its not some HK or Glock. Its your gun if others dont like it mabey they will be nice enough to give you the extra moo-la to upgrade.

    when you get the permit you should have gotten all the laws with the permit... and if the law changes about permits and where you can and cannnot carry. you will get a new permit and laws.

    I seem to remember getting some paperwork with the laws on it the day I applied for my permit but that was years ago now. lol I know oyu do not get anything sent to you when a new law is passed.
