If anybody wants a sweet "fotay" Hi-Point I gotcha covered
So I go to the range today and on the way out browse the wares and what do I see but this fine piece. Big Grin

I have never seen a Hi-Point with custom wood grips and this just made me chuckle a little bit. Truth be told most Hi-Point are......well we will say serviceable but I can't imagine somebody dressing one up.

Enjoy....

looks like they stripped the upper as well, needs gold grip screws, lock, and trigger....

For the money they are a pretty good buy for a truck, tractor, boat gun....

Especially boats, since they can serve as a second anchor...

But how much did they mark it up for the custom work? Doubting that's a HP factory offering?

If not factory grips, that is some very good woodworking. The shaping and inletting are, if not professional, definitely the work of a craftsman.

It's not real wood. It is most likely hydro-dipped in wood pattern.

Looks like plastic to me. Look at the logo near the bottom.

So, did you buy it?

The range I visit has had a 9mm in their case for a couple months. I have to admit I have been tempted a couple times. Just curiosity.

Gee as much as I would have loved to. Roll Eyes I just don’t have the room. Smile I actually never even took note of the price.

YEET! I must say that it does capture the "boomerangy" vibe quite nicely.

The distressed Zamak is a finish I had not seen before... I think I'd name it "Sad Zinc." Razz
