heavy, bulky, and with a low price. You can beat someone if you run out of bullets

So far, so good. This pistol is built like a tank, and weighs almost as much. Have not been to the range yet but will soon.

I purchased this around 2 weeks ago and i've put around 200 rounds through it so far. I gotta say that its performed exceptionally for being on the cheaper end of the scale. I have had 1 failure. It failed to eject 1 empty casing and that was probably the second magazine that i shot through it. It fits in my hand very nice, albeit i do have large hands. I recommend this to anyone who can't afford to get the higher end handguns. It functions great and it has a lifetime warranty. You can't really go wrong. Bud's will take care of you.

Still one of my favorite handguns. Yeah it's ugly, clanky, and bulky, but it's petty accurate has never ftf after 7 years, and feels like your shooting a sledge hammer :)

Great deal and durable pistol. Definitely worth having for a n extra!

This is a really bulky pistol, but it is not intended for conceal carry. The slide is where the majority of the weight is in this handgun, but that also keeps recoil and muzzle rise down. I did find it fairly accurate out to 25 yards. It is difficult to take the slide down for a thorough cleaning, but again this is probably not going to be a weapon that you use on a daily basis. For the price it is a good last resort gun, great for the truck or boat, just in case you need it!

I ordered my weapon on Dec.7th and expected to wait for two or three weeks before getting a call from my FFL dealer. Instead I received a call from my dealer on Dec. the 10th that he had my weapon. Thanks Bud I'm really impressed. Haven't taken the weapon out yet but its just as it was advertised. I'm not sure if its too big for me yet, but |I guess I'll find out when I get to the range. Thanks again Bud.

Buds did a great job getting my order to me quickly. The gun is in pristine condition and functions perfectly. I can't wait for my next purchase. Thanks to all the folks at Buds and Happy Holidays.

I have owned this gun for two years, and have put over 2000 rounds through. Generally a good shooting gun. The slide is very heavy, which makes the gun TOP HEAVY. I have a tendency to shoot low because the barrel dips when I pull the trigger. I Cup my non-shooting hand under the grip and that helps immensely. The gun is also a little picky about ammo. Have had a few FTEs, mostly with 180 grain ammo (unsure if that has anything to do with it), and it doesn't feed Speer ammo very well at all. The trigger is also good, not too heavy. I can shoot a nice group at 5, 10, and 15 yards if the barrel is held straight (I guess that can be said of any gun). I also put a Hogue grip on, which really helped with getting a high, tight grip. Good gun for the money.

A curiosity purchase, nothing more, other than the desire to have a gun that needs less love and can be taken out in harsh conditions (e.g. fishing, boating). First thing: This is an absolutely ugly freaking gun, just as expected. It is also darned heavy with an awkward weight distribution. HOWEVER, this was reasonably accurate and precise at the range (6" patterns out to 15yds) and successfully fed and fired factory reloads and new Winchester ammo with no failures. Only had problems chambering hallow points with anything less than a violent working of the slide. (And yes, it's always said a full and firm action of the slide is important for any semi-auto handgun, but this was truer here than for any other gun I've used, none of which have ever failed to feed the first rounds from the magazine for me.) Basic cleaning can be done from an open action, no disassembly required per the manual, until 1500 rounds! Amazing, by then the ammo costs will far exceed the cost of the gun, and I may just buy a new one (no, I'm not that lazy, but...). It really shouldn't be possible to get a gun with this level of performance for this cost. Buds was great on this shipment, as was their preferred FFL.

This was my first order from Buds. I read all the reviews and really shopped around before buying this; my first pistol. I wanted to start with something low priced because I'm not sure I'll have a whole lot of time to go shooting and I didn't want to end up with a $500 paper weight. A $160 paper weight seems more reasonable. My first impression upon seeing it was..."wow...that thing really is big and ugly". There's no way around it. I thought that the reviews might be exaggerating just how big and ugly it was, but make no mistake about it, you would be a rare bird to recognize this thing as aesthetically pleasing. I wasn't disappointed by this, as I expected it, but it really just reaffirmed the other reviewers opinion. It is also heavy, as many others have said. I've been cycling practice ammunition through it just to get a feel for it because I haven't had a chance to go shooting yet. I know it's kind of silly to review something before really using it, but I will be updating once I get it out on the range. It is worth commenting that Buds truly is excellent. I had a problem with my background check and I thought I might have to return this (after it was at my FFL). They were awesome about it. They emailed an already paid for return label to my FFL and said they would gladly refund me minus 10% (totally understandable). Luckily I didn't have to return it, but still it was amazing how eager and willing they were to help me. All in all, it's a $160 gun. I wasn't expecting much, and I am happy with the purchase so far. Truth be told though, it is just a little too big, heavy and ugly for me. I am already thinking about selling it to my roommate to fund a 1911 purchase. I commend Hi-Point on making a good, quality gun for such a low price though, and for that, 5 stars.

Great service and the gun is great I haven't fired it yet but is decent gun for the money. I will be purchasing another from Budsgunshop nice doing business.

Loving the Hi Point 40! I plan to stay with the Hi Point family and Bud's Guns as long as I possibly can. I know some people want a "pretty" handgun or a looker. Remember that looks can be deceiving! I bought this handgun for it's effectiveness, not it's looks. As long as it gets the job done, that's all that matters! Will be getting the 9mm and .45 soon!

My JCP arrived today. I'm gonna be honest and say its not bad at all! It's a little heavy and bulky but just what I expected. I love the first impression and can't wait to shoot it. Thanks again Buds, yet again you came through.

Every review you read says this gun feels heavy and there right. Yes it is vary accurate, yes it performs perfect. and yes the recoil is much less because the gun is so heavy. it is not a conceal carry gun. it is just way to big and heavy for that. but for the price with free shipping. Holy cow what a good shooting gun. I have other .40 cal and this gun looks like it 40% larger but if you read these reviews you know this gun is good, but big and ugly. Buy it you will like it. you wont love it like a kimber or A H&K but you will like it allot. and I can buy 5 Hi points for the price of one kimber. Maybe a 9mm next time. Why not?

I shot 50 rounds today with my new Hi-Point 40 Cal.The trigger is a little stiff but overall it's a nice heavy 40 Cal. I'm very happy so far thank you Buds!

I ordered this gun for protection. I wanted a .40 so that whatever I hit would most likely go down. The low price attracted me and quite frankly, the reviews persuaded me to give it a try. Wow! Am I pleased! It is a heavy gun - twice the danger as a weapon - when I run out of rounds, I can use it as a very effective club! Even given the weight, it shoots beautifully and the recoil is not bad at all. I am just getting back into shooting after years of work and raising a family. I enjoyed shooting in Scouts growing up and truly enjoy it again, now. I wanted a gun that would work for self-defense and would fire everytime I pull the trigger. I have enjoyed putting 200-300 rounds through this gun with absolutely no problems! It is accurate and easy to shoot. It is most likely too much gun (weight-wise) for a smaller person, but for a larger person like me, it is perfect. Truthfully, I could not be happier. Bud's did great (as promised) with getting my order filled and getting it delivered quickly and accurately even during one of their busiest periods. I will definitely use them for my future orders. If you are thinking about giving this gun a try - I would heartily recommend it. Five stars for sure!

After reading the reviews I decided to take a chance and order this gun. Shipping during the holidays was not a problem for Buds, and I am grateful. The gun is more than I expected, good feel, and accurate with no issues during its first time at the range. I would recommend this gun to anyone looking for a reliable 40cal.
