The Hi-Point .45 ACP is a polymer-framed semi-automatic blowback-operated pistol manufactured by Hi-Point Firearms. The pistol has an integral accessory rail, and a thumb safety. It is also capable of firing +P ammunition. The weapon uses the large .45 ACP cartridge, and is the largest pistol that Hi-Point manufactures. The weapon comes with a lifetime warranty like other Hi-Point firearms. [cite web |url= http://www.hi-pointfirearms.com/handgun_details.asp?Gun=45ACP |title= The .45 ACP at Hi-Point Firearms |accessdate=2008-09-13 ] This pistol is heavy due to the slide. For this reason the felt recoil for the shooter is decreased. When the last round is fired and ejected, the slide will lock in the open position. When another magazine is loaded into the weapon all that is necessary is a short pull back unlike the first.

Out of the box this weapon comes with the normal 3-dot sight and also comes with a ghost ring sight. Along with the sights the weapon comes with a trigger lock at no extra costs and can be ordered from their website. The gun's barrel has a 7 groove right hand twist. The gun's rail only fits a Hi-Point specific laser sight.

While accuracy and performance are averageFact|date=June 2008, this weapon remains popular due to its low cost and lifetime, no questions asked warranty.
