  • According to Urban Dictionary, "yeet" means to discard an item at a high velocity - which is exactly what the Model YC9 YEET Cannon from Hi-Point does. The YC9 lineup is a redesign of their classic 9mm. Tune in to see what Roy has to say to the naysayers.

    I'd respect the person that has a Hi-Point and 10,000 rounds a year of training more than the Kimber collector that shoots one box of ammo once a year.

    Have two of the older Yeet Cannon G1's, one with a threaded barrel. I wanted to say "...a brace of the older Yeet Cannon G2's" but didn't want to sound pretentious. The only thing that might worry me about these pistols is their durability in sequential mafia-style pistol whippings. They'd probably hold up OK and their weight and surface area would surely be an advantage. The guns themselves have plenty of meplat.

    First, I like cheap things, not cheaply made, but cheap in price. Even though I don't own a hi-point, I won't dogg em. A lot of times, I'll buy the underdog just to see for myself. I really don't "need" a new gun, but the new hi-points have caught my eye.. My church buddy bought the hi-point 40, sight unseen from Academy Sports with the laser lite for $300 and when he got home, it amazed him how heavy it was, he's kinda afraid to shoot it..
    Ever review you put out, I watch em. You always tell how it is..

    • @fmgpubs

      Thanks for your kind words Mark. Tell your friend to shoot his gun! They’re heavy since they are straight blow-back so need the slide weight to counter recoil. Roy

    I heard these jam and double , triple feed ammo and the magazine also nose dives the ammo so this new Hi-Point has all the things that suck on the old C-9 Hi-Point . So I’ve has 3 of the older C-9 pistols and everyone of them has all the bad things about them jam, double feed and ammo nose dive so I call BS ! On all you guys who claim that your Hi-Point runs flawlessly ! I do not believe you at all ! Now every guy I know that has had one of these pistols say the exact same thing that I say ! They suck when it comes to running without any problems !! I love guns that are inexpensive and I don’t think the C-9 is ugly at all and I like the looks of this new one but dam it Hi-Point fix the problems I have mentioned and you would have a pistol that would sell 5 times better then it does now ! Heck I’d buy more than a few and I’d buy every caliber they come in to ! The pistol working even 90% of the time isn’t good enough to buy one of these but if you get the reliability up to around what Glock and Sig are , well you wouldn’t be able to keep up with demand !

    • @fmgpubs
      @fmgpubs  Před 2 měsíci +1

      I think much of the issue is the fact most people who buy Hi-Points are brand new gun owners or simply don’t have much experience. They don’t know how to clean and lube it (they tend to run them dry), don’t understand about a firm firing grip and stance and tend to use crappy range reloads. With a clean, lubed gun, good ammo and a correct firing grip and stance, the ones I’ve tested seem to run just fine. Roy
