Looking for a semi-auto pistol to keep in my truck. Somewhere in the $200 or under range in the Tulsa/NE OK area. Preferably 9mm, but open to .45 or .380 depending on the gun/price. Yeah, Hi-Points and other cheap guns are on my radar. Don't judge. I'm just looking for something that won't enrage me if it gets stolen or breaks.

I have a 9 and and 5 other HP hand guns and a carbine in 40.
They are all 100% reliable and pretty accurate.

But I handload all my ammo.
I would buy 2 of those at that price but I do not like to use a credit card or anything on line

I'm seeing a surprising amount of love for HP that I didn't really expect.

Honest question, why is HP made so blocky? It's one of the most unattractive pistols made. Seems like a few minor design mods would increase their sales if they're really that reliable.

If you are thinking about protection, what is you or your families life worth? Go in some store or go to gun shows and get you hands on a lot of them, see what fits you. Get a gun that you are comfortable with and can shoot good with. Practice and then carry it.

High Points are blow back actions. The slide needs to be heavy slow down the recoil impulse. It’s also made of some alloy that is bulky.

You're assuming I don't have a different/better one on my body and you'd be wrong. I'm good to go there. The truck gun will just be a backup that I can leave in place. I've already got a very secure spot for it.
