Best entry level budget competition pistol?

Has anyone shot in competition with a Hi-Point that someone on INGO has seen?

Oh. Yes I saw me.
.???

What’s a hi point?

 

[Mij]

I can only say this because I’ve only got 1% power, and I think I just hung myself with the big dogs.

I love after surgery dope.

Here you go. Does the gun make a difference?

In this video a collector completes against Lena Miculek on a dueling tree. Lena gets a lower quality gun each time she beats him. Ends up with a Hi Point @ 7:25.

Not talking about the gun being different, I'm asking if any INGO members has actually seen a Hi-Point in competition.
I would find it interesting and would like to know how people did with them in real competition. If in fact someone has, that an INGO member has seen or used personally.
I'll watch the video later. Thank you for posting it.

Yes a few years back I was working/ROing at the SNS 400 match(USPSA) a level 2 match with competitors from probably a dozen states and Canada. A competitor came through shooting a High Point open gun with a compensator and red dot on it.
High Point was supposedly trying to get into the competition market.
The gun did OK on the stage I was working and he said he hadn't had any problems in the match so far.
Biggest problem was it is a single stack that only holds a limited number of rounds going against a Hi Cap open gun holding 29 to 30 rounds. I don't recall what caliber it was or if it was shooting Major or Minor.
IIRC some one was actually making and selling Hi Point open guns for a while.

It's most definitely NOT a Hi-Power.

Glock. Solid. Not expensive.

Cheap budget guns will have horrible triggers, poor workmanship, and will be prone to failures.

Everyone has conflicting views on glock, I'm on the younger side so did glock's quality take a turn for the better in the last 10 years, or father back and people haven't caught up or are people just uneducated.

Glock is now in the 5th generation of building "Perfection" pistols. When is it going to happen.

They sure have shot a lot of their owners over the years, desk pops, car pops, locker room pops, parking lot pops, range pops and so on.
We own a few glock pistols, my sons use them at work, now none of us are fond of them, we are Sig Sauer people.
