a STEVENS MODEL 67. turns out the reason why i want getting much info was because of how i was typing it out. i fell in love with this gun the second i held it. i dont know why i just did. the pump handle kinda wobles and i dont know if it is ok that it dose that.i took the butt end of the stock and cut it down and made it a pistol grip(sanded varnished and laminated)since it had what apeared to be a bullet hole from a .22 and a few small cracks on the end.i shot it 3 times just to see if it works. i dont know if its reliable or not i even made a post on here about it.

quick question when theres a thing called a magnum shotgun shell dose that mean i cant use it in a normal shotgun or is it just a more powerful shell. i was talking to a freind bout guns the otherday.

win_1897_man, can you give me contact info for this place with the 9mm carbine?

ya'll might wanna wait anyways.. Seems they might not be so ugly in the future:

Taken at the SHOT show!

Pretty good looking gun... ESPECIALLY for a HiPoint!!

they will be banned before they are released at the rate they are going!!!

Rimjob · 01-22-2009, 11:15 AM

Maybe.. But I wouldn't think they would be too high on the list.. I could be wrong of course! Wouldn't be the first time either! lol

The only place I've seen them available is on gunbroker, and they were either 9mm, used, or too high a price (especially when factoring in transfer and shipping).

I've heard that Hi-Point is having trouble meeting demand, but are ANY rifles getting to dealers? Is anybody seeing these guns in their local gun shops?

In each of the stores that I've recently visited, which normally carry Hi-Points, I've seen reduced numbers of them available...

...and, it's another indication of Americans standing up and speaking out with their wallets and purchases on our right to keep and bear arms, and our concerns about this administration and what they will do to continue the eroding of our 2A rights and freedoms.

what i am wondering is why ban the highpoint if it only hold 10 round to begin with??ain't that in the legal limits of even the most toughest states ??? maybe thats why highpoint never wanted to pursue the higher capacity round mags for thier carbines. am i wrong here ?

I doubt you are! wrong that is.. I still think someone could make a LOT of money building hi caps for hi point customers!!

Interesting. That must be the mythical 4595 made of unobtanium that everyone's been talking about and lusting after.

daroksez · 01-22-2009, 03:16 PM

Where was that picture taken Rimjob? Looks like a gun show. I LOVE those new 995s! That is a bad lookin hi point! What do you know about the arrival of the new models? Has anyone heard when they will be on the market? I had heard a while ago that they'd be out in Aug '08 but obviously that was wrong. Also, has anyone heard if we'll be able to buy the new stocks for our old 995s? I have two and I'd buy the new stock for both of them in a heartbeat!

The hi point carbines will go from fugly to sweet!

Now that I look closer, that pic does look like it might be the .45. but the pics I've seen of the 9mm look like they have the same stock. Whatever it is I WANT ONE!

Rimjob · 01-22-2009, 03:26 PM

The pic is from the SHOT show.. I found it on the Hi Point forum. You've got a good question about the newer stocks (assuming they produce them) fitting the older carbines.. My guess is that they will. I sure wish they'd get the ball rolling soon!!
Looked at the ATI stocks??? Makes it resemble a beretta cx4 storm.

4595... ???? Date has been pushed back again and again! Hopefully one day!!

and yes Shrek that is the illusive unobtanium!!

daroksez · 01-22-2009, 03:32 PM

Yes I like the ATI stocks but I've been holding out and hoping the new hi point stocks will be availible soon. But I can't wait much longer. I'll probably do one of my hi points with the ATI and do some kind of custom job on my other.

gforce9 · 10-11-2009, 10:26 PM

The maker is not producing the 40 cal anymore at this time and they don't know when they will resume. Most likely they never will again.
You will be hard pressed to get one and if a dealer says it is on backorder they are not waiting for the manufacture, they are waiting to get it from another dealer, so you are in for a long wait. Just keep searching till you find one when you do get it. The gun is well worth it, i have shot over 2,000 rounds thru my 4095 and have never had a problem. It is deadly accurate every time. Good luck.

gforce9 · 10-11-2009, 10:29 PM

They want it banned because it is inexpensive.

caopai · 10-11-2009, 10:43 PM

I usually see several floating around gunshows, I personally have one in 9mm, great little guns. Fun to shoot, as you can see, I enjoy it a lot. (got mine for 180 bucks)

My only problem is the trigger XD It has an unusually long pull.
