John Hickok provides a candid review of the Hi-Point JHP .45 ACP, highlighting its budget-friendly nature (around $150) and functional reliability despite its bulk.

The Glock 19X, a hybrid of the G19 slide and G17 frame, was Glock's entry for the MHS trials. While it incorporates Gen 5 features like the marksman barrel, it lacks a beveled magwell. The 19X offers good accuracy but its trigger is described as 'mushy', and the longer grip makes it less practical for concealed carry than a standard G19.
John Hickok compares the Mossberg Shockwave and Remington Tac-14, favoring the Shockwave for its higher capacity and perceived better quality. He introduces the Aguila 12-gauge mini shells and the OPSol Mini-Clip adapter, which significantly increases the Shockwave's capacity to 10 rounds and reduces recoil during live fire tests.
The Leinad Model D is a very inexpensive, single-shot break-action pistol chambered for both .410 bore and .45 Long Colt. While functional, it suffers from rough build quality, a cracked grip, and uncomfortable recoil. It's considered a 'better than nothing' option for extreme budget constraints but not recommended for primary concealed carry.
