Any body have any experience with this manufacturer?
Also realize that no LE agency will authorize them for on or off duty carry. I wonder why.......
I have shot both and found that they shot where I aimed and had a decent trigger.
I have been at the range while those two kept firing and the 1911s kept jamming.
So in my opinion and only my opinion -- they are dependable.
That said, I carry a glock and I recommended against using a Hi-Point as a carry weapon.
