Hi-point carbines - 08/16/19 08:40 AM

I bought a Hipoint 995TS 9mm carbine from a member and I have been very impressed for what it is. It's beer can capable with iron sights at the 75 yard distance I have available for shooting. I ordered the little double mag holder for it so now its capable of holding 1-20 round redball magazine in the magwell and has 2-10 round factory mags on the stock. 40 rounds of 9mm ain't bad...I don't like the 9mm redball mags in terms of looks, but they work...This is a place holder until I can get my Ruger PC9 or Keltec S2K Glk 9.....I see a 45 Hipoint carbine in my future and a High Tower Armory bullpup stock..
9mm may expand.....but 45 WONT shrink☠️

I'm looking to get a 10mm or 45 ACP carbine in the near future.

I'd like to have one myself.........like mentioned above, they're ugly as sin, but make a great truck gun.

That's pretty sharp, but $250? Heck, that's more than the gun isn't it?

It was a test bed to see if I wanted to move to a pistol cal or 300blk carbine/pistol for the wife, vs the 5.56s that she shuns because of muzzle blast, unsuppressed. That one shot great and always functioned, in limited range time.

thats what i thought too. If they would sale the gun with it already installed that might be worthwhile, if the price was right.

My question is......does it provide any functional benefit other than making the gun slightly less hideous? Because let's be honest....even with that stock, the gun's still ugly, but now it's a "kinda ugly $500 gun" instead of a "stupid-ugly $250 gun"....

Considering the price of other 45 acp carbines I think it's ok. Id LOVE a glk 21 mag fed one in an AR platform but h******* their high.

I'd go with the 1095ts as old saying is go big or go home plus not heap difference in price of ammo between 10 and 45 definitely not run of the mill plinking rounds I use my 10 as truck gun or throw in buggy or four wheeler to scout and set/check hog traps haven't failed me as of yet

If you look at Ballistic out of a 16 inch barrel the ten is the way to go . A 16 inch barrel don't help the 9s and 45s.

Course if I got the ten id have to get a glock 20 to go with it
