Hi-Point 4095TS Carbine .40 S&W, 17.5-inch, 10+1, Black
About this product
The Hi-Point 4095TS Carbine is a blowback-operated semi-automatic rifle chambered in .40 S&W, designed for practical range use and general-purpose applications. It features a 17.5-inch barrel with an overall length of 32 inches, weighing 6.2 pounds empty. This carbine ships with an integrated laser, adjustable sights, and multiple Weaver-style accessory rails for mounting optics and other gear.
What is the Hi-Point 4095TS Carbine used for?
The 4095TS is primarily a range and training carbine, not a duty or defensive firearm. I recommend it for shooters who want affordable .40 S&W practice without handgun recoil, burning through 100-200 rounds per session. The 10-round magazine capacity and simple blowback operation make it ideal for plinking and basic marksmanship drills.
How does the Hi-Point 4095TS compare to the Stevens 334 Rifle?
The Hi-Point 4095TS is significantly less accurate than bolt-action rifles like the Stevens 334 in .308 Win, but offers faster follow-up shots. While the Stevens can achieve sub-MOA groups with match ammunition, the Hi-Point typically groups 3-4 inches at 100 yards with factory loads. For precision shooting, the Stevens is clearly superior; for rapid fire training, the Hi-Point has its place.
What does it weigh and what are the dimensions?
The carbine weighs 6.2 pounds empty and measures 32 inches overall with a 17.5-inch barrel. The molded polymer stock adds minimal weight while providing a 13.5-inch length of pull. The receiver rails accommodate optics up to 4 inches in length without interfering with the charging handle operation.
Who is this NOT for?
This is not for competitive shooters or those needing defensive reliability. The blowback system generates more felt recoil than gas-operated carbines, and the 10-round capacity limits practical applications. If you need sub-2-inch groups or rapid magazine changes, consider a different platform entirely.
What's in the box?
You get the carbine, one 10-round magazine, and basic sight adjustment tools. The integrated laser requires two CR2032 batteries (not included), and there's no case or cleaning kit. The manual covers basic disassembly but lacks advanced maintenance guidance.
Is the Hi-Point 4095TS worth it at $358.99?
At $358.99, it's acceptable for what it offers – a functioning .40 S&W carbine with basic accessories. Compared to used police trade-in rifles costing $500+, the Hi-Point delivers 75% of the function at 60% of the price. Just don't expect refinement or match-grade accuracy.

Frequently asked questions
- Is it compatible with aftermarket Hi-Point magazines?
- Yes, it accepts standard Hi-Point JCHP40 10-round magazines. Third-party magazines from ProMag and other manufacturers typically function reliably, but I've seen occasional feed issues with extended 15-round aftermarket options.
- Does the laser hold zero after disassembly?
- The integrated laser generally maintains zero through routine cleaning, but full receiver disassembly requires re-zeroing. Plan on spending 15-20 minutes re-adjusting after deep cleaning. The adjustment screws are accessible but require a 1.5mm hex key.
- How long does shipping take to Montana?
- Ironclad Armory processes online orders within 2 business days, with ground shipping taking 5-7 days to most Montana addresses. Express shipping via UPS reduces this to 2-3 days for an additional $25 fee.
- Can I return it if there are function issues?
- Yes, Ironclad Armory accepts returns within 30 days for defective firearms. The carbine must be returned through an FFL, and you'll need to email [email protected] with video evidence of the malfunction before initiating the return process.
- Does this work with .40 S&W +P ammunition?
- The 4095TS handles standard pressure .40 S&W safely, but I don't recommend +P loads. The blowback system wasn't designed for increased pressure, and sustained use could damage the recoil buffer. Stick with ammunition under 35,000 PSI chamber pressure.
- Is the stock adjustable for length of pull?
- No, the molded polymer stock has a fixed 13.5-inch length of pull. Aftermarket pads can add up to 1 inch, but the integrated buffer system limits modification options. Shooters outside the 5'8" to 6'2" range may find the fit suboptimal.
