ruger lcp is another option, those used to be like 175 used before the virus, now they're like 225 but those are tiny guns too. military surplus pistols are another option too, the beretta 81bb is like 220. you can def get a LOT more gun if you go to the 225-250 range but the problem is that most of them will be pocket pistols, the taurus g2c is the only other inexpensive pistol i can think of off top that's around the same size as the hi-points. if you're set on a full size pistol and have a 150-ish budget the hi-point 9/40 is def the one to get but i can't understate how bad these things are, they use a design called straight blowback which has been obsolete for over 100 years, it requires the gun to be huge and have lots of recoil. the trigger kind of needs to be pushed downwards when pulling it, like you have to flinch on purpose. literally the only nice thing i can say about it is that it'll go bang reliably and won't blow up in your hand which i can't say about the other $150 guns/saturday night specials.
and if you get a lemon hi-point is known for having great customer service even if you bought it used.
They had the g3c in stock...took everything in me not to pull the trigger on two of those.
I'm trying to start a Black Gun in my area so I started a GoFundMe.
If I did would y'all support it?

Don't know what the hell I was doing. I think it's because I'm right handed but I was using my left eye. All my shots were going left. I gotta go back to the range soon because that's shyt infuriating
there's a big shortage right now, 45 isn't as bad as 9/5.56 but it's getting there so pretty much any kind you can get your hands on i'd cop. check out ammoseek to get a feel for pricing: https://ammoseek.com/ammo/45acp?co=new&ca=brass but if you're gonna cop only a couple hundred rounds it's prolly gonna be a better deal at a local store. i'm pretty bored lol so i put together a quick tier list of 45 range ammo i've shotLast time I went to the gun range my aim was terrible at 7 yards.
What's the best .45 ammunition and what's the best website to buy from? Went through my 100 rds like it was nothing. Gone need at least 300
