Hi-Point 995P 9mm Red Dot Brace Pistol – Reliable 13.25″ Threaded with Optic

Description

The Hi-Point 995P 9mm Red Dot Brace Pistol is Hi-Point’s 995P handgun in its RDCT 2XRB package: a stabilizing brace, a Crimson Trace red dot and two Redball Sports magazines in one box.

Hi-Point 995P 9mm Red Dot Brace Pistol Overview

Hi-Point catalogs this version as the 995P Brace RDCT 2XRB. The pistol has a 13.25-inch barrel threaded 1/2×28, a ghost-ring aperture rear sight, a HiViz fiber-optic front, Picatinny rails top and bottom, a weight of about 6.1 pounds and a 20.75-inch overall length. Our store title lists 10-round capacity, while distributor listings describe two included Redball magazines, which Hi-Point offers in a 20-round size, so confirm the box contents and your state’s capacity limits before ordering.

How the 995P Works

The 995P is Hi-Point’s 9mm carbine action in a handgun configuration: a straight blowback bolt, a 13.25-inch barrel and a polymer chassis whose rear plate accepts a standard AR-style buffer tube. Because it is not a rifle it has no stock, and the rear plate is meant for a stabilizing brace. Blowback keeps the design simple and inexpensive, and at about 6.1 pounds the gun soaks up 9mm recoil well. Hi-Point builds it with American-made parts and assembly and backs it with a lifetime warranty that transfers to later owners.

Sights, Rails and Controls

The 995P uses a ghost-ring aperture rear sight and a HiViz fiber-optic front, both adjustable, plus Picatinny rail sections at 12 and 6 o’clock for an optic or a light. A manual safety, a thumb magazine release, a last-round hold-open and quick-disconnect sling capability are standard, and Hi-Point includes a trigger lock, sling and swivels. The barrel is threaded 1/2×28 for a thread protector or other muzzle accessory.

Red Dot and Package Value

A factory-mounted dot speeds up target acquisition and helps shooters whose eyes struggle with iron sights, and the irons still work as a backup if the battery dies. Zero the dot at 25 yards with your chosen load and check the mount screws after the first range session. Buying the optic, brace and magazines together usually costs less than adding them separately, which makes this one of the most complete 995P configurations Hi-Point offers.

Ammunition, Magazines and the Brace

9mm Luger is the least expensive centerfire pistol round to shoot in volume, and the 13.25-inch barrel adds velocity over a typical handgun. Hi-Point rates its 9mm guns for +P ammunition. The standard 995P magazine holds 10 rounds and does not interchange with the C9 pistol. The extended magazines in this package add capacity for range use but make the gun taller, and they are illegal to possess in some states. Rules on stabilizing braces have changed several times through ATF rulemaking and court decisions, so check current federal guidance and your state’s rules before ordering.

Honest Caveats

Hi-Point products trade refinement for price: expect mold lines, a heavy reciprocating bolt, a serviceable but gritty trigger and limited aftermarket support compared with pistols that use AR or Glock magazines. Disassembly involves pins, and resale value is modest. A suppressor on the threaded muzzle requires an approved ATF Form 4 and must be legal in your state. The 995P is front-heavy and awkward to fire one-handed, and holsters are effectively not an option.

State Laws and Ownership

Pennsylvania buyers 21 and older can purchase this pistol through a dealer, and carrying it concealed or in a vehicle generally requires a License to Carry Firearms. Other states are stricter: some keep a roster of approved handguns, some cap magazine capacity, some restrict threaded barrels on pistols, and many require a purchase permit. Check your state and local rules before ordering.
