In my article last week about 'Defensive firearms on a bare-bones budget', I mentioned that a low-cost yet seemingly reliable pistol was made by Hi-Point Firearms. I said that 'I actually like their carbines much better than their handguns'.
Here's a news report about a woman in Detroit who fought off three home invaders using a Hi-Point carbine. The model displayed in the news report looks similar to the 995TSFG model. It certainly did its job in keeping her and her children safe.
Apparently the cops caught all three home invaders. I'd like to think they'll lock them up for years to come, but you and I know that's probably not going to happen. They'll most likely just get a slap on the wrist, perhaps a few months in juvenile hall . . . then they're going to get out and do it again. Next time, hopefully their selected 'victim' will be able to put a stop to their shenanigans once and for all.
