What do you guys consider to be under appreciated guns

Hi-Point
Big and clunky, overweght for caliber But rock solid, accurate, reliable, low priced, and backed up by no-questions lifetime warranty with excellent customer service.
 
The Browning BDM.

It had an impossibly thin grip for a double-stack magazine. The operation was unique, it was light, accurate, and easy to fire.

It just never caught on.

I'm a glock guy and would never choose a Hipoint over my glocks..That being said a highpoint loaded an ready in your hand is better than a glock at the shop on layaway..
 
Pretty much any Bersa,,,

Pretty much any Bersa,,,
They get ragged on like red-headed step-children,,,
But more often than not the raggers have never even fired one.

I believe they are just ragging the country they come from.

I was at the range one day and a guy asked what I was shooting,,,
I told him I was shooting a Beretta Cheetah and a Bersa Thunder 380.

He proceeded to tell me that my Bersa was a POS,,,
That they were cheaply made and were Jam-O-Matics,,,
But my Beretta on the other hand was a high quality handgun.

I asked him if he wanted to give the Beretta a try,,,
But I handed him the Bersa 380.

He raved about how nice that Beretta shot,,,
Then I told him to look at the logo,,,
He turned red and walked away.

I just chuckled.

That's got to be my favorite range story here so far. That's great! It'd be funny if you see him at the range again with a Bersa of his own.
 
Aarond, that is great. I am going to pick up a Bersa sometime and you should gt a commission when I do.

The PX-4 line has been mentioned already but I have to give it bother bump as a pistol that doesn't get the credit and recognition that it deserves.
 
Kimber 1911's... I have never had one that didn't feed everything and wasn't extremely accurate. For the price they are a great gun,...and I have had several full blown custom IPSC 1911s built for me so my point of reference is pretty critical. To be fair, I have only owned the top tier Kimbers but still alot of gun with outstanding fit and finish.

Hello TailGator and SHE3PDOG,,,

I have sold a few Bersa's for the company,,,
And I agree I should get a commission from them. :rolleyes:

When I take newbies shooting,,,
My Thunder 22 and Thunder 380 always go,,,
They are very reliable and easy to shoot and hit with.

A young lady I took shooting just a few weeks ago,,,
Liked the Thunder 380 so her father got her one for Christmas.

My 380 has never failed me yet,,,
I know for a fact I've sent over 1,000 rounds downrange.

Any AMT/Irwindale Arms Hardballer. Probably most maligned US produced 1911 Stainless gun on the planet to the uninformed.

With any knowledge of 1911 guns (Jerry Kuhnhausen) one can easily create a more than acceptable pistol with a bit of work. These guns should be available at some gun shows at a low price but methinks that dealers have jacked up prices just because of that premise.

I have a Hardballer produced in the early 80's that runs flawlessly with hardball and Federal 230 gr. HydraShoks with a barrel throat job courtesy of Jerry's pics and instructions. It's not very pretty as it is my truck gun.
 
Astra (Later models)
Star (Non 1911ish ones)
Bernardelli
Tanfoglio (Nice CZ75 clones)
Canik55 (Nice CZ75 clones)
