High Point & High Tower Armory, or What you can turn a regular carbine into

56

995TS carbine shooting

Weapon and firms. No, don’t say that, and our Russian government makes a big mistake by prohibiting our citizens from producing and owning firearms. After all, whoever really needs it, will always get it, or even hammer its opponent with an ordinary hammer or frying pan. For example, I can shoot anyone with a ball from a ball bearing from an ordinary cast-iron iron if they wish. I’ll buy it, going “in business” in the shop of antique goods, conjuring a little over it - and that’s it. But afterward I’ll go and drown him in the river, and ends in the water. The fact is that in this way we are depriving ourselves of a profitable production niche, jobs and taxes to the budget. “Russians in the world know!” It’s enough to watch the Polish movie “All-in 3” to see what kind of reputation we have there, but just such our reputation just helps some types of business! And money doesn’t smell, it has long been known to everyone. And such small private firms today could completely produce competitive weapons and even export them! In any case, in the West, in a market economy, there are simply a lot of such firms. But our “collective farm” seems to have died a long time ago, and we entered the market, but for some reason this segment is not developing it. Are we afraid that, like in the United States, every fifth president will be killed? So what? People die - peoples live, and, by the way, they live very well. Well, I’ll tell you about examples of such a family business in arms today ...


The very first model of the carbine "995" under the 9-mm "Luger" cartridge. The extraction of sleeves is carried out to the right


The same carbine, left view


And this is a store for him.

For example, the American firm Hi-Point, a family-owned manufacturer and seller of firearms in the Midwest, proud of its 30-year-old history. Its full name is Hi-Point Firearms, and it produces small arms of the budget category under the brands Hi-Point and Beemiller. The headquarters of the company is located in Mansfield, Ohio, and part of the production facilities is also located there. High Point offers a one-of-a-kind, unconditional lifetime warranty on all its products, and it is transferred even to the sale of their products to a third party. Amazing right? And this, after all, indicates that the weapons of their production have unique qualities. It's like Rolls-Royce cars, which, as you know, never break.




"40995" carbine chambered for 10 × 22 mm Smith and Wesson


Carabiner 4095TS-PI (pink - "pink"). And what? What is bad? Any color for your money!


Model HunterWC ("Hunter"). As befits a hunter, all in camouflage

Moreover, the owners of the company turned out to be smart people. They didn’t get involved in the competition and produce the famous “arches” (AR), but found their own niche in the market and began producing small-sized carbines chambered for 9x19 Parabellum, .40 S&W, and .45 ACP. The use of cheap polymers and conventional alloys has resulted in lower production costs and lower selling prices for these products. Interestingly, the performance characteristics of Hi-Point carbines are so high that they are sometimes incorrectly called assault rifles. But in fact, these are just self-loading carbines, adapted for firing pistol cartridges, so the recoil from the shot is very small. And there were people in the USA who really liked such weapons, and they began to buy them!


Carabiner 995TA4X. As you can see, all new samples of this weapon have Picatinny rail. There are three of them on this carbine: one top, one under the forend and the last under the barrel. Well, right, its creators were visionaries!


Want to pose as a tough guy or run with a carbine in the woods in the dark? Then you need this model: 995TSFGFL (tactical flashlight + red dot). Everything is here!

In 1998, 28 copies were sold (just think about it!), And good sales are still ongoing.

They started with the Hi-Point 995 version - the original 9 mm version, then the 4095-caliber Hi-Point 40 model was created. The newest model, the Hi-Point 4595, was no less successful. True, the Hi-Point carbines had a "not very impressive appearance", which is why critics called them "weapons of the Planet of the Apes." The Hi-Point 995 carbine is also known for the fact that it was used by Eric Harris during the massacre at Columbine School on April 20, 1999, where he fired 96 shots from it. Nevertheless, even this dramatic event did not diminish the popularity of this carbine.


Shutter handle, fuse, trigger ...


Standard scope


Plastic handle, replaceable magazines and 9 mm caliber cartridges

Interestingly, its design is really not impressive. A corrugated barrel, half sunk in the forend, a pistol grip into which a magazine with cartridges is inserted, a plastic butt. Nothing supernatural. It weighs only 2,6 kg. Magazine for 10 rounds. However, subsequently the company, keeping up with the times, released several new models of more modern design and, in particular, with Picatinny rail. However, the basic design of the carbine has remained unchanged!


A lot of different sights can be attached to the carabiner!

And now we will talk about another company, a small company High Tower Armory from Minnesota, owned by Andy Wenzel, who at the end of 2016 announced that she would produce spare parts for Hi-Point Carbine rifles. And not only spare parts, but also the conversion stock MBS-95, which represents a modular bullpup system! That is, having bought this conversion kit, the buyer can easily transform his old carbine “995”, which looks like a weapon of the Planet of the Apes, into something completely new, modern and futuristic. To achieve this level of service, the HTA team, as they write about it, offers customers “high-quality sports products right out of the box”, firstly, and secondly, it presents its products “in an atmosphere imbued with faith that you, customer, come first. ” It’s even like this: “in an atmosphere permeated by faith!” Well, why don’t companies write like this in our missions?


Here's what they did: they simply took out the firing mechanism with the barrel and clad it in a fundamentally new plastic design!

Incidentally, it is also interesting what they wrote there, and this, as they say, is not directly in the eyebrow, but in the eye.

“We at HTA also understand that since we are an integral part of our community and country, we have responsibilities that go beyond obligations to our customers. Most of our freedom and prosperity as a nation can be attributed to a strong and diverse economy. To help propel this economy, the High Tower Armory team has committed to buying, designing, and manufacturing American products. We are very proud that each of our products is manufactured here in the USA by our friends, neighbors and fellow citizens. High Tower Armory, LLC, from draftsmen to injection mold operators, from one satisfied customer to spring manufacturers and machinists, helps return America’s manufacturing sector one share, one spring, one barrel! ”



MBS-95. Variant with collimator sight and tactical grip

This is how this small company supports the US national industry. And there are many such companies there! And there is a saying: a drop wears away a stone!


MBS-95. Very original color scheme!

So, in 2016, they created their first “kit”, and then, in February 2017, a photo of this MBS-95 set was released. Well, in July 2017 - and a photo of the mold for its manufacture.


If you remove the front protective bracket, then instead of it, you can attach a bracket for the belt to the trigger guard


Slot for a belt on a removable protective bracket

Now the conversion kit MBS-95 has appeared on the market, although it took some time to occupy its niche in it.

What attracts this development of American weapon lovers?

Compact bullpup design.
Modular assembly.
Incomplete disassembly without tools.
Double-acting fire mode switch.
Melonized adjustable steel trigger pull.
Melonized steel store receiver.
The metal in the kit is in most cases anodized and made in accordance with Mil-Spec standards.
Suitable for ALL Hi-Point carbine models (including 10mm version).
Made in the USA.
Mil-Spec Hardcoat has an anodized Picatinny rail.
Total weight: 3,5 kg.
Assembly can be carried out in a matter of minutes, and cleaning in a matter of seconds. The kit is available for both right-handed and left-handed people.

The cocking handle is located on the left and is moved forward. But you can put it on the right if you wish. It is provided. And you can put two handles at once!

The MBS-95 is a sturdy nylon case, two Picatinny aluminum rails, aluminum support blocks, an internal recoil reduction system and an adjustable trigger guard. Melonite internal steel components provide better corrosion resistance, and aluminum components have a solid anodized layer, which increases their durability.

High Point & High Tower Armory, or What you can turn a regular carbine into

The sets are made in several types of colors: black, arctic gray, “dark land”, “OD green”, and “desert tan”


What is behind ...


... what's in front. The design is equally elegant and well thought out!

All parts of the set have the same dimensions, but in fact they are not interchangeable, since in some way they depend on the caliber. Do not swap .380 ACP to 9mm Luger or .40 S & W to 10mm due to possible ammo confusion. But all markings are printed or marked on the outside of the parts ("foolproof"), so what caliber they are intended for is very clear.

The magazine lock is also located inside the trigger guard and is wrung out by the fingers of the left / right hand, as it is double-sided. A very original solution is a fuse, the key of which is located next to the trigger, but the fuse on the left side of the case also remains.


Another detachable part that further enhances the styling of the stock is a safety clip that can be added to the trigger clip. It has a slot for a nylon belt. Two more slots - one on the store shaft and the other on the butt


Range of carbines from MBS-95 sets

The price of the set is only 249,99 dollars, which for aesthetes and amateurs to shoot and differ from all others, of course, is inexpensive!

          Found! Especially for you!
          The store sells 65 thousand rubles Hi-Point 995 TS, well, not a penny of course, but quite affordable. So in vain the author of the article threw a "cry" about the fact that the government forbids everything.
          And the fact that such rifles are not developed in our country is indulgence, it is better to take a normal rifle under a rifle or intermediate cartridge.

            Regarding the "Cry of the Author"! The question is different, in Russia there is no civilian arms market! Large concerns and a couple of three stubborn! If the market was comparable to the western one, then there would be an opportunity to expand to small and medium-sized businesses !!!
            And so there is no demand, no offer !!!

          High Power boasts of making the cheapest pistols and carbines. This is the main feature of their advertising company. Type heavy yes, not beautiful yes, small ammunition yes, nor any technical highlights, yes, but this is the most affordable weapon at a price that will never fail. So in an article he was called Rolls-Royce in vain. It is rather a Niva a cheap option for any occasion.

    The author does not imagine, I hope that the welfare of the states is based on the availability of small arms? By the way, although the author was probably asked a question, I’m still interested, does the author himself have firearms?
    And this, after all, suggests that production weapons have unique qualities. It's like Rolls Royce cars that are known to never break. But if they broke! I hope the author does not think so seriously.
    It weighs only 2,6 kg
    and a pistol cartridge. That's the whole explanation for the "unique qualities" of the weapon.

        It is clear, i.e. the development of the US STATE according to YOUR opinion, is this not the result of a series of wars in foreign territory with predatory purposes and not making profit (here I can only envy) in foreign wars, but strictly the availability of small arms? In Mexico and other Iraq with Libya, and somehow differently.

            Well, excuse me, I can’t give exact figures, but only the war with Mexico enriched the States not badly territorially, and the war with Spain actually made them a colonial power, plus virtually complete control over South America, and it was not a palm branch that was reached by the United States. Or do you think all kinds of deliveries to the warring countries do not enrich and do not develop the economy of the supplier country? If you think so, then this simply shows a depressing knowledge of the history of the 20th century.
            Quote: Vasily Ponomarev
            why in China then 2nd, he didn’t attack anyone
            Could it be because of the free sale of weapons to the people of China? Or all the same, that China has become the workshop of the world.

            Did you feel the increased economic power after the Syrian war?
            Is this war being waged by Russia with predatory purposes? You think a little bit before you write.
            But if you believe that the country's prosperity is achieved by the free sale of weapons, then the experience of Japan does not confirm this, as does the experience of Russia before the age of 17.

                  the United States was not rich, it was simply the only developed country in which the industry was not destroyed, and it became rich because everyone else had no resources, the United States became an almost exclusive supplier of goods to Europe, and if you didn’t know then after WWII US debt was a record and was higher (in percent) than now

                      ingenious, Watson, especially about stupidity, everything is fine in this comment, and the fact that the United States always repaid debt (I hope you know this, although apparently not), as well as the fact that you don’t know why the percentage of debt has decreased (hint, due to more high economic growth) and the fact that you called me stupid as a result, you yourself wrote nonsense, not for the first time and not for the last, (by the way you can give an example to whom they did not repay their debts)

                        China represented 1.618% of the world's economy in 1987 (lowest point), rising to 11.47% in 2012 (highest point). It accounted for 32.9% of the world's economy in 1820, 17.2% in 1870, and 8.9% in 1913
                        9 percent in the 13th year, for comparison, now the share of Japan is somewhere around 6 percent

        In fact, weapons are needed to stop scumbags.

        First, as AP Chekhov said: "the gun <...> must shoot!" A person who is armed (but not specially prepared for handling weapons) is less careful and more aggressive, that is, it is more likely that an armed "civilian" can provoke a critical situation himself.
        Secondly, I have little idea of ​​thugs who could be scared away with one or two shots from a pistol - rather, they can make them angry ... But going to work and going to the movies with a tactical rifle ... it’s not comme il faut.
        Yes and no, now classic thugs. Basically, these are quite organized criminal groups. You put a couple of members of such a group - the rest will come and take revenge ... And they will definitely have a weapon with them (since everyone can, why don't they ?!).
        Thirdly, as the author himself correctly noted, a prepared person is capable of killing anything. "Civilian" with a screw cutter against a thug with a sharpening does not survive! But knowledge of self-defense techniques will completely help stop a couple of overly hyped drunks ...
        Fourth, the experience of our country shows that there are a lot of psychos on the streets (and especially on the roads!)! Now they are walking around with traumatics and bats, and if you let them carry "normal" weapons, what will start on the roads then? (Do you believe that in a shootout with a random nutcase you are guaranteed to win? And in two, and in two every day? ..)
        Do not forget: a certain culture of handling weapons in the United States appeared after a good hundred years of shootings for any reason (well, here I am exaggerating the situation a little). We have no such experience in our country (only the "five-year plan" of the Civil War, and that is very conditional), therefore, after the "distribution of arms" in Russia for fifty years, everyone will be firing at "everything that moves" with fury and passion. .. Do you want to participate in this? In what capacity? (Do you believe that as a shooter in a large dash, and not a target in the wild forest? ..)
        Fifth, the US experience shows that the presence of firearms among "ordinary" citizens does not hold back the growth of crime. On the contrary! Any psycho can buy a whole arsenal and arrange - on the occasion - a universal mochilov ...

        But sometimes it’s nice to revel in the shooting range ... And sometimes any normal peasant sometimes wants to hold a weapon in his hands. But only SOMETIMES ... Well, so to the shooting gallery we all cherish!

            Such a "powerful" review could have been laid out by myself: the tea would not have burst out ...
            Some interesting statistics.
            In 1991, the United States set a record for the number of killings - 24700. By 2018, the population grew from 252 million to 327 million (30%), and the number of trunks on hand - from 217 million to 393 million. (81%). What happened to the killings? Their number fell one and a half times - up to 16214.

            And this is fso!
            So what? - Never mind! There we are talking about murders, in general, and nothing more.
            What, all the killings in the US are committed exclusively with the use of firearms?
            What, you only need a weapon to kill? - And "peacefully" robbing exclusively without weapons? And what about this during the described period? And heavy bodily ones are applied only with hammers and irons? How about that?
            And as in the period between 1991 and 2018. the legislation changed? - Maybe there was toughening for murders, and the people "cooled down" ...
            Well, dude croaked something there at his own pleasure, but why refer to this? There is no analysis of the situation! So, a couple of non-binding facts ...

              Well, if without weapons, then where does the weapon then? I mean, if they’re not killing with weapons, then this is just the example that the author of the article says, it’s not the culprit
              > What, weapons are needed only to kill? - And "peacefully" robbing exclusively without weapons? How about that?
              it’s written in the same place, a link is given in the test (God, I’m chatting with people for how many times, I’ll give them links and they don’t read them) where is the information about the number of crimes, here you can play http://www.disastercenter.com/ crime / uscrime.htm as you can see, thefts have been steadily falling since 91, lower than in the mid 60s
              > And heavy bodily inflicted only with hammers and irons? How about that?
              Well, there is probably no such exact statistics, but the table contains the total number of attacks, murders, etc. So, in general, despite a good increase in rape (there are different reasons for this, most likely recently the ladies began to rarely "give"), then the level has been steadily decreasing since 90
              > What about the period between 1991 and 2018? the legislation changed? - Maybe there was toughening for murders, and the people "cooled down"
              maybe, but it's good, I don’t quite understand what it’s for

                I, as you probably noticed, am not very interested in this topic (if I were interested, there would already be a sea of ​​statistics).
                The author wrote a purely emotional article about "how nice it would be if ..." If they gave everyone guns, if they started to produce "carbines" that spit pistol bullets, if they began to turn these "carbines" into other "carbines "... No figures (except model numbers), no comparison with competitors, no prices, finally ...
                And readers behave the same way - they emotion slowly ...
                Do you want to dilute our chatter with "your" "tsifir" - wells! - Dilute! ... just do it all yourself - with your hands ...

                And I also remembered one song by Andrei Vadimovich Makarevich ...
                Give your friends a shotgun, since there are daredevils among them.
                Give your friends a shotgun - and the fools will transfer!
                <...>
                When the last enemy fell, the pipe lost the victory.
                Only at that moment did I realize how few of us are left!

                ... with the distribution of guns always so ...

                  Well, do not be offended, I understand perfectly (I can once again give you a link, if it is interesting of course, http://www.disastercenter.com/crime/uscrime.htm)

          The US experience shows that the presence of firearms among "ordinary" citizens does not hold back the growth of crime.

          This is just the beginning. Sources of critical situations will quickly end.

          Basically, these are quite organized criminal groups.
          They always had and have weapons, regardless of laws.

          Prefer them to bang you right away. And so - you have a chance. And if one does not bang right away, but is wounded and tortured, then you can visit potential opponents first.

          Fourth, the experience of our country shows that there are a lot of crazy people in the streets (and especially on the roads!)!
          They will quickly end. Most of them just have time to reeducate.
          Quote: PilotS37
          Now they walk around with traumatics and bats, and if you let them carry "normal" weapons, what will we start on the roads then?
          Peace and mutual respect. Injury is not perceived as a weapon. Moreover, due to our limitations, the effect of its use can only be when shooting in the head, which is prohibited and leads to murder. And from a normal pistol, a shot in the knee will reduce aggression to 0 without risking the life of the attacker.
          Quote: PilotS37
          Do not forget: a certain culture of handling weapons in the United States appeared after a good hundred years of shootings for any reason (well, here I am exaggerating the situation a little). In our country, there is no such experience (only the "five-year" Civil War, and that is very conditional), therefore, after the "distribution of arms" in Russia for about fifty years, everyone will fiercely and passionately fire at "everything that moves"
          Nonsense. Weapons are allowed in the Baltic states - no problem. Is the Baltics not an argument for you? In Moldova, weapons are also allowed, no problems either.
          Quote: PilotS37
          Anyone crazy can buy a whole arsenal and arrange - on occasion - the universal mochilovo ...
          A psycho will have it anyway. The problem is that people do not exercise their right to arms, otherwise they would have felled these nutcracks after his first shots.

          Culture? IN THE USA? Have you seen WHAT is going on there? With the demolition of monuments and licking the shoes of blacks. What other culture is there? Cuckold culture?
          How much can you whine. In Russia, the weapon is FREE SALE. It can be bought by any person with no criminal record (or with a cleared conviction) who is not registered for a fool or a drug addict. What else do you need then?!? Do you, whiner, have, for example, Saiga 9? Not? Why? On the list?

    For example, I can shoot anyone with a ball from a ball bearing from an ordinary cast-iron iron if they wish.
    Introduced Shpakovsky entering the bank with a cast-iron iron and shouting: "Everyone on the floor, this is a robbery."
    Employees of the bank who have lost their strength from laughter are lying on the floor, and Vyacheslav Olegovich takes the money. The main thing is that you don’t drop the iron on your leg.

    The table is somehow dumb, In the field camp, on the collective farm "Krasny Lapot" and then drunken tables were hammered together more accurately. What slots. The 9 mm cartridge fails. The collective farm chairman, Dermidont Fomich at such a table, would have raped this needlewoman in a refined form. drinks

      Although the table is really dumb for a shooting range, I wouldn’t have to take apart a weapon on such a table.

        The presence of sleeves in the slots indicates dowels on the boards. An ordinary table made to stand in the open. So that the deformation of the boards from moisture changes affect the overall geometry. You can disassemble on such a table calmly. Well, to be honest, it’s better to disassemble the weapon in your native cloth. Correctly trimmed with braid at the edges. So that was a trough. And with weights in the corners so that the wind does not shake. Or on a knee covered with a pea jacket or tunic.

    For Russia, more natural and civilizationally close is the "Japanese version" of arms regulation.
    In it, on the one hand, weapons are accessible, but very, very regulated and even a well-organized crime does not have significant weapons arsenals. On the other hand, there are powerful and profitable arms corporations that produce high-quality, high-tech products and work in the domestic and foreign markets.
    A small number of Japanese deaths from weapons and indicates the effectiveness of such regulation.
