Hi-Point Carbines

RugerNiner

I've read all the post about the Hi-Point handguns, but I also heard the carbines are built a lot better.

I want a cheap 9mm rifle to throw in my Truck/Trunk. Something cheap that I don't have to worry about scratching and getting dirty.

What is your Opinion on this? Are the Carbines built better?

Carbine good, accurate, powerful (for a 9mm), robust as heck; even has an extractor like no other I've seen. Definitely worth $150.
Only downsides are cleaning entire apparatus (comes apart like a clam), and limited mag capacity (unless someone figured out what other mags fit it). Feeds everything I've tried, made, or scrounged.
Sling goes on right side and looks wierd like it would interfere with ejection, but it hasn't yet!

If you know it all; you must have been listening.WEAR EAR PROTECTION!

I have one and think for the money it's worth it. However, don't expect a whole lot outta $150. It's definately on the bottom of my (personal inventory) list to shoot.[:)]

Mine stays behind the seat,getting a little
uglier every day,but it has never failed to
go BANG when needed[^][^].Will jamb now and then,
but then,for $100 at the pawn shop,I don't expect
$600 quality.[:D][:D]

But then I wouldn't keep a $600 gun behind the seat!!!![:D][:D]

IT'S WHAT PEOPLE KNOW ABOUT THEMSELVES THAT MAKES THEM AFRAID.

That's exactly my point. I don't want to carry an expensive rifle.
I will, of course, have my Ruger 9mm with me which is why I want a 9mm carbine. I will also have a cache of ammo in my Truck.

I have a Ruger PC-9 and won't throw that in the back of the Truck!
