Most houses only give out little .22’s for Halloween, but go to the ritzy neighborhoods and you’ll get full sized DEagles and P-90s.
My neighborhood would be seized up Hi-Points
I have a .45 Hi-Point carbine. Flawless operation, had never malfunctioned, weighs 10-pounds, impossible to clean. Along with other… odd design choices.
Hi-Points are what you get by giving a group a very smart engineers a list of things the product needs to do. A group of engineers that has never seen an actual gun.
For everyone trying to imagine what they are talking about - i had no clue
Mum the yanks are talking about their guns again.
Poor photographic skills. Were are the holed socks or bare feet in the picture? You need to either turn in your HiPoint or destroy that picture and take a proper photograph!
A minimum of crocs is required for a proper hiPoint picture
I would disagree a bit as a traditionalist. But, I’m fine with changing tastes.
White is much better. Nice!
I have a Hi-Point .45 pistol and that pretty accurately describes it (the weight is fine but the balance is weird and makes it feel terrible).
I use it as a close range backup when I’m hog hunting. I’ve only had to use it once and it worked just fine. It literally saved me from being at least maimed and possibly dead but I still hate it. And I’ll keep using it until it stops working, which may be the apocalypse.
Damn. I really want one, but I already have a Colt .45 and the weight is the same. Is it this one?
Speaking of hogs, I’m outside all the time in NW Florida and have never seen one or evidence of them. OK, two came to my house, apparently lost, but I’ve never seen them in the wild. Horror of mine as a sounder would level my camp in the boonies. Where they at?!
It’s that in black. That Colt is going to feel much better, though.
Northeast Texas. I’ve got a buddy up there with some land and we have to go clear them out a couple of times a year. They tear up everything. He lost a dog to them a few years ago and now we go out there like clockwork instead of waiting for them to get closer to the house.
I have a Sig Sauer p320, had to send it in to get the “drop issue” fixed. Doesn’t matter how much you spend, engineering failures are everywhere. Not so much a knock on Hi Point as the neighborhood is live in. The one I found discarded in my yard two years ago had been rusted to the point of being inoperable.
Another Person of Culture and Class I see. I too have a Sig P365XL.
Though I prefer my Remington New Army for most things.
Kids just primarily prefer a handgun cartridge that’s suitable for putting into a rifle for game hunting. It simplifies what sort of ammunition to carry in their backpack. .45 long colt or .357 magnum should do the trick. 10mm auto if you’re dead set on semiautomatic.
A p90 and not a complementary Five-seveN?! How unamerican.
P-90 or PS-90
P90, it’s Secret Service sponsored entrapment.
Lunatics put blades in those things.
They’re called bayonets, sir.
He’s talking about the ones in the licking hole.
No no, no, the lunatics put trigger locks on those here.
This is how you stop school shootings. Good kids with guns stop bad kids with guns.
Give some kids some candy, they eat candy for a day.
Give them a handgun and they eat candy wherever they fucking want.
Lawful evil kid standing behind a tree spawn camping the newly armed trick or treaters
Come on guys let’s go to the Hendersons house they give Full Auto’s, we can egg this house later.
Americans are so generous.
Of all the shitting Trump does to immigrants, he signed the bill into law that required giving each naturalized citizen a Glock and an AR-15 upon taking the oath.
I always eat a few of their bullets. That’s called the Dad Tax
I hope they have at least 15 rounds each in them. Not a those shitty California clips.
clips.
Magazines. Magazines include a feeding mechanism, usually a spring. Clips just hold bullets together.
Very pedantic for a neanderthal
Neanderthals were fairly progressive, mancaves came later.
Facts are facts, otherwise they’d be opinions
So then all magazines are clips, but not all clips are magazines.
Sort of. Another way of thinking about it. Clips feed magazines, magazines feed guns.

You missed my point. I own guns, know how to operate them, and know the names of the parts. I use magazine and clip interchangeably, because pointless pedantry doesn’t contribute anything to the conversation.
Certainly not to your side of it, eh?
No, you can have non-removable magazines. The tube in a pump-action shotgun is the magazine, but it’s definitely not a clip.
I think you would say the clip is inside the magazine.
🎶 Kids With Guns🎶
What’s up with Lemmy getting me to look up guns today?
Texas got its power back and is posting again.
Shooting guns at paper targets, sporting clays and other targets is tons of fun.i took my MIL to a quiet outdoor range to shoot for the first time in her life. A few months later she bought a Glock 17. Reduced capacity magazines because California, but she loves to go shooting.
“I heard this house on only has compact 9mm hi points, pfft, they say the house next door is giving out full size sig sauers, let’s go there”
gross they still have serial numbers
Don’t worry, there’s always that one house that gives out files instead.
We have a dremal at home…
I don’t think anyone has ever accused HiPoint of ever manufacturing and marketing anything as a compact firearm. This is the company that will literally sell you a Yeet Cannon…
probably would find that out here in the boonies further back
Wait, does Halloween even exist outside the US and its hat?
I thought it was just an us and our hat holiday.
Id imagine it exists everywhere the Catholic Church went. Most places likely didn’t commercialize it to people like we did though.
Think it’s called All Saints day in some places
In most of Europe, tomorrow evening most people will go to the graves of their former relatives and light candles, it is quite beutiful.
I am considering bringing my trusty kerosene fuled storm lantern for both ambience and finding my way in the dark chruch yards.
Do they give you your free candy when you get to the graves or is that later? When do you get the sweeties?
not funny…funny…
