I have been shooting one or more times a week. My Hi-Point .380 keeps jamming.... I've tried new clips, cleaning, and different loads... It still does it! Bought it brand new about 6 mo. ago and have ran over 500 rounds in it. Can anyone help with this problem or know what to do or is it just the quality of the gun?
My Hi-Point does NOT like semi wad cutter ammo. I have a .380 and tried some of the Winchester target rounds from Wal-Mart that come 100 rounds for about $17. Those rounds jammed every so often in both my Bersa and my Hi-Point. I use ball ammo in both guns and have no problems. Also, are your magazines after market mags? Factory direct mags are cheapest ($15 including shipping for an eight round mag or $18 for a ten round mag) and obviously designed for the weapon.

They have a limited Lifetime Warranty. Send it back to the factory with a note explaining the problem. In my experience they have always fixed the problem and returned the firearm promptly.

You could use it for a paperweight. Or buy another one and use them for bookends.
Just kidding!! welcome to the forum, Regardless of what Joe says I have had no problem with my HI-point 40 using winchester ammo. You can ship a gun to the factory for repairs without going through an FFL, I think.

nrajoe I was tempted to buy a used hi-point in 9mm at the dealer for $95...I used to think the cz52 was pretty ugly ...so decided against it - thought I'd save it to get that trigger job on my 1911.
Hi-Point troubles!
