My post wasn't edited. People chose to react instead of reading it. Including the Moderator. This is why I'm seriously considering leaving this forum. From the top down, it's no longer living up to the Mission/Vision/Values of being the High Road. Very disappointing.

Wow. Just wow. Another member gone.

Funny, usually I'm one of the few that defend Hi-Points, but tonight I'm being flamed for putting a twist on the post. Thought people would see the irony, but instead I see not. oh well. I'll give it two days and read another hi-point bashing thread without anybody chiming into defend them.

The exact point of this thread, as discussed before, is the purpose such low cost firearms serve in the working class house hold. This lady, could have been at the mercy of the pistol wielding thugs that kicked in her door, but she did her duty and used it well. Considering how rusty the pic...

Since when have I ever bashed hi-point??? I posted this in contradiction (with satire) of those that frequently discount them based on their opinion and not facts. Don't be quick to over-react. The article posted speaks loud and clear that this weapon has a place in society.

I hear all kinds of stories from people that had a cousin with a friend that had a sister married to a guy that had one that wouldn't function.

Just saw a pic of the rifle on the blaze... I hope she gets the rust off of that thing!

I'd sling it and practice.

Hey! Welcome to the group. Anytime you want to move to a "free" state, Kentucky will welcome ya!

my post was a low blow.

Scopes aren't needed. I was hunting with an m91/30 that I paid $80 for about 3 years ago. If all I had was a sharp stick, I'd still try to hunt.

Ruger Mrk III 22/45 Target Model.

That's a good deal. I buy aluminum ones on ebay. Pretty darn cheap.

Well, I took it out to the range. Only had one type of .22 pellets, and it didn't like those very well. Groupings were horrible at 25 yards. Of course, maybe it was my technique. I plan on taking off Friday and going to the range. I'll try with the .17 caliber barrel and the variety of...

I wind up at the VA Specialty Clinic quite regularly. My doc does ask me about guns, usually what new ones I have and shares what new ones he has. A 20 minute appointment can turn into 45 minutes.

I don't draw unless I'm going to fire. Only drew once on a dog. Luckily it didn't attack, but I was going to fire. I don't draw as a deterrent and I don't give warning shots.

Seek out those that want to Mentor others in this hobby. I've had two such kind folks set me up with a used Rock Chucker, dies, manuals, lead pot for casting, ladles, bullet molds, and lubrisizer. PM sent to ya. I might have some stuff for you.

I have a Remington 700 stainless steel with leupold scope that I use for cast bullet shooting. Fun Fun Fun and pretty cheap.

I do both. Depends on the powder, my mood, and my goal.
