It's a shame he laid waste to such a fine pistol collection.

They are cheap, heavy, clumsy, but will put rounds down range. I bought one because $99 pistol (I think they are 125 now), it’s not a terrible shooter and kinda a novelty at the range. Everyone wants to shoot gangster style with a high point.

I bought a 40 cal Highpoint as a throwaway gun and it's not even worth that. Whenever I checked the safety was always off after beating around in the RVT.

To be kind, It's a rather low point in firearms design.

They work much better if held horizontally. I hear they will last a long time but are almost impossible to take apart for cleaning.

I had one in 45 ACP, it went bang every time. Couldn’t say the same about my Metro Arms.


Obey lawful commands. Video interactions. Hold bad cops accountable. Problem solved.

Do it with a gun that has a locked breach.

I have two of them, a 9mm carbine and a 45acp carbine, both guns are fun as hell and I don't recall ever having a misfire I could attribute to the gun itself.

It was interesting to see the amount of abuse the gun could take.

A locked breech would make a world of difference.

He’s also got 3 YouTube channels with millions of subscribers. Manufacturers give him stuff the mess with, to get their name out.

He’s also a veterinarian with a successful vet practice.

Stupid he is not.

Same here. The carbines are the biggest bang for the buck in the gun world.

I sold a lot of those Carbines and quite a few of the pistols back when I ran my hometowns largest gun store many, many years ago.
Never once had a customer return one. And quite a few brought the friends back to buy one after shooting theirs.
They were “cheap”. But evidently worked fine.

Never owned or shot one myself.
