You're not doing reviews, you're doing promotional videos. Although I don't know what you're promoting when you or the pistol can't make hits at nine feet.

If that's the best the pistol will do, no thanks. If that's the best the shooter can do, he needs practice.

Ok, I watched it, the whole thing. I am glad to see that everyone is wearing their PPE. The sound is not the best, and you are still pretty close to shouting, IMO.

As to the gun, I am not sure why you would want to offer this...unless no one else is. those that buy these guns are not going to spend alot of times in forums like this, plain and simple. they will go on Youtube, so my guess is that these are essentially promotional sale vids for your business. That bid-niss will get no traction here with vids about Hi-Points - sorry, that is how it is.

I worked for a gun shop that sold hi-points when they came out. I have personally, thru the shop of course, sold maybe 200-300. I have fired most of the earlier models. Better than nothing.....but not by much. The first guns in maybe the first 3 years were little more than boat anchors, and while they have gotten better, they are price-point guns, and there is a reason you rarely see any positive reviews on them. By comparison, if you take a look at the Rock Island guns, they have alot of reviews, and by the actual owners and heavy users, you see that they have developed their product line into something worth having, whilst Hi-Point sees to have stopped at functional, and that, I think, is the real issue. My suggestions is that you address that here and on a future vid.

Ps - like the Biblical verse sig-line.

Hey SI, I took the time to look at some of your other posts - you really should respond to those as opposed to just going along as though no-one ever said anything, that is just being polite

Do the bullets start tumbling the second they exit the barrel of that piece of shyte? Those holes in the first target (which is as far as I got) were about two inches long. The guy shooting that thing looked like he was about to jump out of his skin every time he pulled the trigger. I guess he was scared that heap of scrap iron was gonna come apart in his hand.

I wasn't going to say anything, but you have some [bleep] up looking feet.

Helluva schit though. I'd have snapped a pic myself.

I am getting the idea that you would be well served by investing in a training class or several and learning how to shoot rather than spending your money on these fantastic bargains. You couldn't hit much off a bench at short distance in your AR "review" and your "long distance" (10 yd) shooting is incredibly poor with a pistol. I can understand being new to firearms, but being new to firearms and trying to make promotional videos while having no skills is just sort of sad.

My favorite part of the video was the complete lack of muzzle control with a loaded gun while he was talking to the camera before shooting the last target. Yikes! Seriously dude, get some training.

They were definately keyholing at 10 yards.....what a piece of schit, and the shooter needs serious range time and maybe an a/v class
