Reliable, cheap, pain in the A to take apart, but supposedly cleaning is not needed
They have a great warranty and will replace any part no questions asked.
And the best part is they are ugly as sin.
I own one of the first gen's and they are fun!
the only negative i have found so far is that the rails on the tactical stock arnt as secure of a fit as I wish and some things may have some wiggle to them
I would rather own a Keltec sub2000
lighter, better magazine options. Just my opinion.
Hi-point uses a proprietary rail system. Lots of accessories will not fit properly.

There are a few company's that make a aluminum picatinny rail for it cost about 50 and take up the looseness. Makes a huge difference.

I have both. My KT uses Glock mags, plenty of hi-cap availability, but off brand mags tend to fit very loosely, some can be wiggled out without hitting the mag release. Factory Glock are not a problem. The Hi-points are limited to 10 rounders in MA and I have read that the aftermarket 15 rounders are garbage.
I think the HP is much more comfortable to shoot as the KT just has way too much cheek slap for me. And the KT was almost twice the price of the HP, both used.

If you get the accessory buttstock adapter, it makes a HUGE difference in making the sub comfortable to shoot, and it is cheap right from Keltec. Not only that, but it doesn't change the length of it when folded. You can also buy cheap foam sleeves to make the cheekweld more comfortable, but I personally didn't try those yet
This! Not to mention that the Sub2000 folds in half and will fit in a laptop case or backpack. Just that feature alone sold me. .....the ability that the Keltec had of using preban hi cap mags, and folded to 16"
That was the deciding factor for me. I can keep the gun folded with a 17 round mag in it, bolt open in the case. Pull gun out of case, unfold, hit bolt release and ready to go quick! Other mags are loaded in laptop case. Very subtle bob

Thanks for the feed back now to find one near Fall River.

I was at Collectable Arms and Ammo in Merrimack NH yesterday and they had a couple in stock for $289 (I think) yesterday.
They also had the 45 cal in stock....
I have a Highpoint C9 9mm, does the carbine take the same mag as the pistol?
I may just buy one if they do!
....Anyone have experience with the one that comes with a 4x RGB scope? Is the scope decent quality and worth an extra $60 compared to the other model? Or is the factory peep sight good enough for 100 yard shooting? ^^And are these decent prices for these particular hi-points?
I should probably shoot one first. I shot a sub 2000 a friend of mine has, and the length of pull and aiming down the sights was just akward for me and it wasn't fun to shoot. But I'm somewhat tall with long arms so maybe that's why.
I've been thinking about getting one at some point as I try to buy multiple guns in the same caliber to help consolidate (22lr, 9mm, and 38/357 mag). I was looking at these 2 models:

Fun rifles to shoot, ive had the 9mm, .40 and now have the .45. Entry level rifle, but super accurate up to 100 yards out of the box. If you have the cash i would suggest a JRC carbine or a Beretta storm
But if the $300 price point is what drew you to it, go for it, very fun, very reliable and as i said shockingly accurate for a $300 dollar rifle. Ive shot thousands of rounds between 3 different HIGH POINT rifles and not one FTF or FTE. Not the most comfortable to shoot, bit you gotta trade something for the value.
Just fyi, there is a factory buttstock extension that can be ordered direct from Keltec that not only increases the LOP, but also makes the buttstock WAY more comfortable to actually shoot, and maintains the same overall length when the gun is folded. It was one of my first mods, and made the gun way more pleasant to use since I also have gorilla arms.
