My dad, who knows nothing about firearms, traded some work for a 9mm. It’s made by the Maverick Arms company located in Ohio. I’ve never heard of this company, but the gun looks like the ones made by the Hi-Point Arms company in Ohio. It’s an 8-shot, striker-fired blow-back design. The finish looks like some sort of crackle paint. Has anyone ever heard of this company? Is this 9mm of POS? Any info would be appreciated.
