Never, ever drop a loaded Colt 32 round mag. Ever seen the old "snakes in a peanut can" gag? Yeah. It's like that.

Re: 9mm High-Point Carbine

Because of their price, they tend to be bought by people who abuse the heck out of them, then pawn them when the need arises. A lot of the used ones are in very rough shape and sell cheap.

And that's the good news, because they have an outstanding warranty.

I have a buddy in Washington state who snaps up every High-Point carbine he can find for under a c-note, and he can usually get the junkers for under $75. No matter what is wrong with them when he sends them in for repair, he gets back an essentially new gun. And sometimes an actually new gun, if they decide that's cheaper than repairing the old one. Cost: zero.

He usually has no problem making $25-50 on them when he's done.
