High point

Not necessary, Pal. I will let stand without challenge an over opinionated post that fails to cite references and offer facts and data. Opinions are, as we all know, very much like celery. They are.....wait minute. Sorry. See? He got me off track.

I really don't feel it necessary to defend Glock or any other quality pistol over a marginal self defense pistol like a High Point. If you need references and proof well you just go ahead and waiste your time searching the internet. I will only need to say "told ya so" afterward

. I really don't care who carries or trusts them. I just know that I won't be one of those guys. My life and limbs are worth more than 90 bucks to me. Carry whatever you like with confidence. The voice of experience tells me to do the same. Just with a different choice in weaponry. Have fun with your guns. That is a big reason to have them, but do not trust your life to a gun made of magnesium alloy (high Point, Lorcin, Ravin, Davis, ect) and unsafe design. I sure won't. DO NOT CARRY THESE PISTOLS WITH A LOADED CHAMBER. If you drop them butt first they can fire and blow off your n*t sack. This is not my opinion but well documented warnings. If you need any proof of my views in this post just go down to your nearest police shooting range and get the opinion of another experienced shooter. Don't be surprized when they tell you the same (and they will). I hear the Army is looking for a new pistol (they really are not)...Ooooo maybe the'll choose a High Point .45. HaHaHaHaHa! Best.

Those with little experience in a certain field often accuse the more experienced/knowledgable person of being opinionated. This accusation is often, but not always, a reflection of their own inexperience and overwhelming realization of it. Just my over opinionated view of the ignorant. This is in no way a personal attack on any one in particular but if you feel that it is directed toward you, it's just your conscience. Off topic but I am craveing celery for some reason

. Thanks alot Rick. Yall stay safe.

Not at all, Brother. Like I said, it was not directed toward anyone in particular. One cannot be "mean" in the abstract, now can we?

Oh, yes you do. You can feel it right now. It's that little twitch that starts around your left eye and works it's way down to your fingers. Feel it? Yeah, that's it. That's why the mouse is movin' down to the message box. You want to. You HAVE to. It's okay. It's genetic and you're powerless to stop it.

Your turn.

The very last time I was in the lab Wilbur and Dale wanted to know if they could tattoo my left eye. I haven't been back since.

That's the 3rd slam at Winnie. The 3rd!! I sure don't want to be you when she gets her hands on you. It's a shame the Sopranos went off. You'll make a perfect candidate after she's done with you.

**redwoodfox** · 12-04-2009, 12:23 AM

no,no. We got it all wrong. I finally figured it out,just had to read between the lines. Glockcop under thar rough sarcastic role is really a kind caring man who worries about our personal saftey. He would sleep better at night if he knew we were all shooting glocks, so therefore just pm him with your address and he will be happy to buy you a glock of choice to replace your highpoint. Please people we need to take this seriously,this poor man is giving himself an ulcer with worry.

You're probably still better off than a Hi-Point owner!!

A friend of mine bought one, a few months later he was trying to sell it to me for half price.

I do wish that people arm themseves with the best weapons they can afford but I'm a Detective/Instructor on a cop's salary. I just can't afford to outfit all of you with better weapons BUT I'm sure a call to Pensilvania Avenue will get the ball rolling for ya. They seem to have no problem spending what we don't have. Just an idea. You may get a free cell phone too. I hear they give them out like candy nowaday's. Prepaid phones are the way to go with the drug dealers and social miscreants that receive that Gov. hand out. How else would they call the food stamp office to see if their food stamp card is ready for pick up EVERY month. Somebody has to feed them. May as well be you and I (people with jobs). You know...the guys who will die broke with little more than "CHANGE" in our pockets. I "HOPE" it gets better. And yes I am a kind and caring person (albiet a little harshly tongued at times) who is sincerly concerned with the public's safety. No sarcasm in the last part. Yall take care.
