Hi-Point 995TS Carbine 9MM

Design and controls that favor practical use

The Hi-Point 995TS Carbine 9MM features an all-weather polymer skeletonized stock with an internal recoil buffer that tames felt recoil and improves follow-up shots. Its quick on/off thumb safety and grip-mounted clip release put essential controls within natural reach. The carbine’s last round lock open feature and fully adjustable iron sights (post front, peep rear) provide positive feedback and simple sighting options when transitioning between electronic and mechanical aiming methods.

Optics, rails, and real-world adaptability

Factory-equipped with a Crimson Trace Red Dot, the 995TS shortens target acquisition time for defensive or dynamic range work. Multiple Weaver-style rails, a scope base, sling swivels, and a supplied sling give you mounting options for lights, backups, or magnified optics. The 16.5″ barrel and 31″ overall length balance maneuverability and ballistic performance for 9mm rounds.

Why 9mm matters here

Chambered in 9mm, this carbine leverages common, affordable ammunition with low recoil, making it ideal for training and defensive use. Hi-Point rates this carbine for +P ammunition and specifies it accepts all factory 9mm rounds, giving owners flexibility for loads that meet their needs.

The black stock with black metal finish presents a utilitarian appearance while resisting wear. At a price of $397.99, the Hi-Point 995TS Carbine 9MM delivers an American-made package with practical features tailored for shooters who want straightforward reliability.
