Hi Point Test.

I can honestly say that unlike a Glock the C9 fits my hand.

The new blog post will be going up today at noon...or something like that. Apparently the blog software thinks only in wrong-coast time and I've been setting it thinking in terms of right-coast time and that's been delaying the publish of the articles. I think I've got that sorted out...but we'll see.

Before it goes up, however, I want to throw a shout out to a couple of folks. Firstly, to Tom Jones who unbeknownst to me did a bunch of behind the scenes communication to try and get me a real holster for the Hi-Point. If you're picking friends, pick people like Tom.

Secondly:



Dark Star Gear has made what is probably the nicest holster that's ever been made for a Hi-Point, or that ever will be made for a Hi-Point. And it works really well to boot. Obviously I've been doing this test with a sense of humor, but they took building the holster deadly serious. I'll post more pics tonight or tomorrow to show the attention to detail.

Amazing work. I wonder how many orders could come from that Hi-Point forum if they knew about it.

What was that old saying about gun leather? Something like "you should plan to spend at least 25% of the value of your gun on good leather".

Does that need to be amended for Hi-points? Something like "you should plan to spend at least 125% of the value of your gun on a good holster".

I did some googling and apparently there's at least one Hi-Point forum that's following the test closely. They'll get to see DSG's wares today.

DSG really isn't that expensive. I'm digging my IWB/OWB holster I got from them.

The accuracy from the HST was a real surprise.

The accuracy continues to be twice as good, group diameter, than what my "in spec" "good" Smith and Wesson M&P 9mm fullsize can do with ASYM match ammunition and a rest, shot by a shooter who has printed a 1.98" group from other M&P's that same day.

I agree...that ***CENSORED*** is bananas. B-A-N-A-N-A-S.
