I had a brief burst of confidence through 15 feet, but it was short-lived. My first grouping out of the box at 10 feet was a little low and to the left, but very tight. I wish the accuracy was as impressive as the reliability, but it also could have been operator error. It could have been operator error, but the groupings were worse than expected. Once the author pushed the target to farther than 15 feet, accuracy quickly began to diminish. I even went as far as to alternate JHP and FMJ rounds in the same magazine and “dump” a few mags quickly that way… still no issues. I made sure to shoot a mixed bunch of ammo through it that included remanufactured 115-grain FMJ, Blazer Brass 124-grain FJM, and Norma 115-grain JHP. Much to my surprise, I did not experience even one failure through 250 rounds. I had heard the C9 was reliable, but I had my doubts. I was able to rack it fine with a firm grip, but I would have liked to see some more aggressive serrations.įor those of you who enjoy the finer details, here are some quick and dirty specifications.įrame: Polymer Range Report: Reliability and AccuracyĪesthetics and first impressions aside, the range is where my feelings towards the Hi-Point C9 started to change and improve. Not only is it bulky, but it’s slick and the slide serrations didn’t help much with racking the slide. I did not have a chance to break it in, so it seemed to stick and catch when flipping it on and off. The safety though, which doubles as the slide stop, was really tough to manipulate when testing. It didn’t seem to get in the way while shooting. The mag release is textured nicely and easy to manipulate. The author has some reservation whether the paint will last long, but time will tell.
The rear sights are adjustable and easy to see in daylight.
