My next purchase will be a gun safe, but after that I'm seriously thinking about a Hi-Point 1095 carbine, in 10mm. Now that just HAS to be a hoot! I have the older style carbines in 9mm and .40S&W, and they're killers.

I bought a used Hi-point C9 from a friend who said it jammed. I tried it myself, and got repair parts from the factory, to no avail. The factory rep said to send it in. Turns out that the cost of sending it UPS is about equal to the cost of the gun, so I shipped it through the FFL of my local gun store. To my surprise, they sent me a brand new gun, and destroyed the old one. I like the new one so well that I sent my daughter's boyfriend money to buy himself a C9 for Xmas (he lives in another state).
It has been described as a "range gun" which is true, as I wouldn't want to carry one all day. But having said that, it is a fun 9mm, and recoil is very manageable.

Strange a hundred dollar gun can get a grip so right.My HiPoint C9 just went past 10k rounds with zero failures that were the guns fault. Couple bad primers, 2 squibs(all commercial loads). Cleaning? I swab the bore now and then, I have never taken it apart for a deep clean! My favorite range pistol because it soaks up recoil making my carpal tunnel happy. They are fun to decorate too(I owned a laser engraver...)

Hi Points are cheap cheap crap. But, we have 3 9mm carbines a 45 carbine, 2 45 auto's and 2 380's. I've sent back a 380 and a 45 and both came back fixed and with an extra mag.
The same (my first) 45 I flat wore out and sent back AGAIN with a broken firing pin. They still fixed it Plus new springs Plus a new sight screw that I didnt know was bad and an extra mag.
People can say what they want about them, but they are a full warranty for life company.
They are cheap so if they fall in a mudhole from your truck(my main reason) you aint out much. BUT THEY WILL FIX IT.
And it will feed ANY piece of garbage load a rookie can load.

I have heard that they are the #1 "boat gun" on the Gulf coast. Makes perfect sense.

Hahaha!! Not quite the same kind of boat gun I'm thinking about.
