Hi-Point/HK crack baby?

Never seen one before in my life, and this popped up on arfcom EE...

They were the first polymer framed pistol and haven't been produced in 20+ years.

Looks like a Glock and NES Zapper had a late-term abortion.

Kill it! Oh my god it's hideous, kill it!

DOHCTR does not approve of such talk of HK products. You vill all be dealt vith swiftly and harshly.

Say what you will about those guns, they were incredibly revolutionary for their time. They were the first polymer framed pistol, predating the Glock 17 by over a decade. They also use a striker setup that glock more or less copied.

"One unique feature of this weapon involved the combination stock/holster for the martial version of the VP70. The stock incorporates a selector switch that, when mounted, allows selective fire. Cyclic rate of fire for the three-round burst is 2200 rounds per minute. When not mounted, the stock acts as a holster. The VP70 uses a spring-loaded striker like a Glock, instead of a conventional firing pin."



Also back in 1970 an 18 round capacity was absolutely unheard of.

I'm not seeing any obvious gaps or bad fitting. I bet it shoots fine.

It's still an HK, and was designed to be a machine pistol, and apparently a good one.

I'm not seeing any obvious gaps or bad fitting. I bet it shoots better than a glock.

Admit that was what you were thinking.

I don't shoot Tupperware, either way. For that matter, I don't shoot too often at all.

You're showing your ass, junior.

I'm just going for the cheap laughs.
