Talking custom 995



a lot of work and design went into this piece. I didnt like either of the stocks availible for it so i took a bunch of my spare parts and modified the whole thing into a real assault rifle. Now i have the gun i want for the price i wanted to pay. What do you guys think?

Yeah! But now, when people who don't like hi-oints roll their eyes at the range, you can't mak 'em eat their words with your carbine prowess--they won't believe it's a hi-point!

Where'd you find all that funky jazz? Bet they don't have it for the 4095 anyway. Your photo is backwards, BTW.

after putting my ar15 and my 995 next to each other and doing the math and wondering why he fuzzed up the picture so much. this gun only exist in photoshop.lol it would cost way more than the regular price of a nice ar15 to even mod a highpoint to even look like this. so unless this guy can post a picture"clear"picture of him holding this gun in his hand and not a fuzzy yellow picture then it's fake. i have the .9mm and the 40s&w highpoint and a ar15 and i can't see anyone doing this type of mod to one for a cheap price it would be way cheaper to buy both guns outright!!!! the hand gaurds on a ar15 are 7"long plus the front sights are 1-3/4 long do the math there is no room take your highpoint apart and look at it and you'll see the front bolt that holds it together has to be taken out and the front of the action of the gun has to be cut off .lmao maybe i'm wrong but hey i call it as i see it.

post a picture of you holding it.or someone holding the gun because all the measurements don't add up plus the time and money don't add up too. the way i see it is you slid the hand gaurd over the front handgaurd and that tells me the distance on the front sight and the barrel length just don't add up. i can see the regular front grip of the 995 under the front grip you ieghther slid over it or c/p'd over it so that tells me the barrel is not real too.

i cut about 6 inches out of the foregrip on the original stock and plastic epoxied it back together, and i cut the rear stock completely off behind the reciver, made a plate to cover it out of 3/4 inch plastic then mounted the ar stock onto that. there isnt much of the original stock left except around the reciever. the gun is the same just chopped and added on a bunch of stuff to the original stock. i took the sights off an m-4 airsoft gun and jb welded it to the barrel and took a flat top rail and just bolted it to the original reciver cover and put a carry handle sight on top. not much to it so if you still think its a fake than i dont care cause its real and im proud of what ive done.

so infact if it is real you can only fire one shot then let it cool down so that way you don't melt the plastic front sight or the jb weld?? it's not a functional gun.nice contraption but not functional.what about the flashhider?? i know the barrel on the highpoint is real thin so after you would thread it that would make it dangerously thin??? and from the picture there is no adaptor on it so how dod you do the flashhider?when you post a gun like this you need to be ready to post how you made it don't just drop off a photo and say look at my gun . you have to put yourself in my shoes it looks fake and you never posted how you made it. tto me if i would have made a gun like this i would have put step by step how i done it . do you see where i'm comin from?? did you see my pictures and with you not saying anything do you see why i say it's fake?i'm gonna go back and scale it out on my autocad program and see it the numbers work out. but still useing plastic airgun parts on a barrel thats not gonna last i melted my sling not to long ago on my barreland it's made out of stronger stuff than a airsoft front sight. now i'll give you one thing you did put together one hell of a proto-type gun if you was smart you would take it to a gun smith or a fabricator and get the stuff pattened and get the stuff made out of the right material. get some plaster and make some molds of the parts and go from there .

the original stock is made of cheap plastic and its not made to melt, and ive fired over 200 rounds through it since the mods and no melting. and the flash hider is blind pinned in place and was done by a gunsmith. my gun is one of a kind and i want to keep it that way. And lets face it its a hi-point so its not worth patenting and making molds and whatever. It looks great and shoots great and thats all i care about. I just put the pic on here to get peoples opinion on my work not to show how its done, i have no reason to prove its real. its a gun i put some stuff on it to make it look cool and thats it. its like me putting an ATI stock on it and someone telling me its not real, it doesnt make any sense.

the plastic the the highpoint stock is made out of and the plastic the the front sight is made out of is two totally diferent plastics.as for as the ati stock thing goes it would look alot more real then it does now . right now things just don't add up.if you say it's real then you say it's real. what ever .

Unhappy



no hard feelings man, this is me with it. And the airsoft gun i took parts from cost me $239 new and i burnt the gear box out. so it wasnt a cheapie with walmart plastic, plus the front sight is white metal so it wont melt anyways and the jb weld is made for metal like on engine blocks and stuff so it shouldnt melt either. if this isnt enough i dont know what else to do.
