The standard HP-15 models started shipping mid-year. When I put in a request for an HP-15 carbine for evaluation, the Hi-Point team kindly offered to send one of the first camouflage models to leave the factory floor. The new Hi-Point Firearms HP-15 carbine is reliable, well-made and feature rich for its price point. Although some folks are not enamored with other Hi-Point models, AR fans looking for a less-expensive option should give the HP-15 series a closer a look.
