For once we agree michael, I also think pistol caliber lever guns are great, and a shorty rifle is not all that hard to manage in confined spaces. A calico would be a great car gun if it functioned flawlessly. I still think you cant beat the Hi-poiunt for reliability, performance and price. Its also a rifle I could stand to lose and replace easily, if the car was stolen or burned up.

I always liked my .454 lever. I never feel under gunned and ya never know when a T Rex might run through the neighborhood. ;D

I was down at the club tonight and a guy had one of those little High Point 9mm rifles. It was pretty crappy- all plastic with nutz-and-boltz type hardware. What's funny though was that it shot really well. And the sights were easier to use than the silly little sights on the Beretta Storm.
The thing was pretty accurate, and for under $200 it's cool to be able to place 9mm rounds at distance and feel cheap about it. I might get one!

I have a hi-point 9mm, its fun to shoot. The trigger is pretty crappy, the 10 rd. mags need to be bigger, but it shoots great as far as accuracy goes. I just wish someone would make hi cap mags for it that are dependable. I bought some 15 rounders that won't feed. All the info I can find on them says they just don't work very well, Iv'e tried bending the lips and a few other thing to no avail. But like I said its a blast to shoot.
