Kind of larger version of the infamous Saturday night special - similar to a Jennings or Davis .25 auto.
Not even close.
The Hi Point is clunky ugly, oversized but very reliable.
The Davis and Jennings pistols were not only unreliable, but many were unsafe to shoot. At least as far as we know, Hi Point doesn't employ gang members who steal cases of the pistols off the loading dock and distribute them among their friends.
