How Tough is a Hi-Point? (CHEAPEST PISTOL) - Summary

Summary

The conversation revolves around a man named Matt who has recently acquired a new gun. He shares his experience of buying the cheapest pistol from a pawn shop, specifically a High Point model. He describes the gun as "ugly," heavy, and making weird noises. Despite his initial bias against the gun, he takes it out and tries to shoot it. The gun is notably inaccurate and makes weird noises during each shot. He also mentions that the gun's magazine capacity is only 10 rounds, which he considers inadequate.

Matt also conducts a series of tests on the gun. In one test, he tries to shoot the gun while standing in a pond, but the gun still fires all its rounds and shows signs of dirt and debris. In another test, he tries to disarm a toy gun model named "Mechanic" by grabbing it from the side, but the gun's slide breaks. Despite these setbacks, Matt still expresses a desire to see the gun run more than any other gun he has owned.

In the end, Matt expresses his dislike for the gun, but also acknowledges its durability, stating that it could potentially be bulletproof. He suggests that the gun could be a good addition to his truck, where it could be easily accessible.
