Hi-Point Firearms has introduced the first-ever carbine chambered for the 30 Super Carry defensive cartridge. Many personal and home defense practitioners understand the value of having ammunition compatibility between their handguns and rifles. This has long been the case with 9mm handguns and pistol-caliber carbines (PCC) chambered for the 9mm Luger. Now, Hi-Point is extending that same compatibility to Federal's new 30 Super Carry handgun cartridge with a carbine chambered for this potent ammunition.

The Hi-Point 995 is the industry's first rifle to accommodate the 30 Super Carry cartridge. Available with a 16.5-inch barrel length, the Model 995 boasts a semi-automatic action with a 10-shot capacity. The carbine features a skeletonized polymer stock and pistol grip with a ribbed polymer fore-end for lightweight and durable performance. The carbine comes with a front-post sight and a peep rear sight that is adjustable for windage and elevation. A Picatinny rail atop the receiver and a rail below the handguard allows shooters to accommodate optics and accessories.
