hey i know alot of you guys are going to laugh at me for this but if you are looking for something for the uses you described but a hi-point 9mm with a compensator you could buy 3or4 for $500 i have one and wouldnt trade it for the world i have shot around 500 rounds through it and it has never jammed and will shoot 3to4 inch groups at 25 yards what more do you need for plinking or home defense
