Hi-Point’s First-Ever AR-15

BREAKING: Hi-Point’s First-Ever AR-15

Published On: April 25, 2025 Updated: April 25, 2025 BY Larry Z

You’re not going to believe who just entered the AR-15 game.
Ready?
Hi-Point.
That’s right.

This rifle is chambered in 5.56, and it’s joined by a pistol variant that comes in both 5.56 and .300 Blackout.

You might be thinking, “Yeah, but what’s the price?”

Get this: MSRP is under $500. Let that sink in. And yes, it still comes with Hi-Point’s famous lifetime warranty.

For that price, you could buy one and toss it in the BACK of a pickup and not worry about devaluing it. It just might become the new go-to truck gun. Everyone will be able to afford at least one of them.

I know their pistols are the 'butt' of the gun world because of weight and build, but they do run. If their AR runs like the pistols, they may rock the "cheap AR" club back on its heels a bit.
I saw several gun bloggers talking on youtube yesterday and they are waiting to try one out for the reasons you mentioned.

I'd like to see someone with an auto-sear do a burn-down and see how well it fares.

I don't have anything bigger than .22 LR that's blowback operated, except my carbine conversion unit, and it feels a couple pounds heavier than it should be. A blowback pistol in .40 S&W, .45 ACP or 10mm has to be a top-heavy, awkward gun. The 10mm is over 3 pounds and the majority of that's going to be reciprocating mass of the slide. But, like I keep hearing, as heavy and butt-ugly as Hi-Points are, they work.
