Weighing in at just over 6.5 lbs loaded, the 4095TS has a solid heft that soaks up recoil, turning the snappy .40 S&W into a soft-pushing round. The overall length is a compact 33 inches, making it maneuverable in hallways or vehicles. The polymer stock and receiver keep weight down, while the steel barrel and bolt provide the necessary mass for reliable function. This carbine is drop-in ready with its factory-installed laser, requiring no gunsmithing to get it into action. It ships with a 10-round magazine, and spare magazines are readily available from Hi-Point.
Who This Carbine Is For
This is for the Missouri homeowner who wants a dedicated, straightforward home defense tool that bridges the gap between a pistol and a full-size rifle. It’s for the shooter who prioritizes mechanical simplicity and value—a firearm that goes bang every time without a four-figure price tag. It also serves well as a truck or ranch gun, a durable tool kept handy for pest control or property defense where its laser can be a decisive advantage in poor light. At $367.81, it delivers serious capability without a serious investment.
Pros & Cons
Pros: The integrated laser is a genuine force multiplier, allowing you to aim without perfect sight alignment—crucial under stress. The carbine format makes the .40 S&W incredibly easy to shoot accurately compared to a handgun. The simple blowback design is famously robust and easy to clean. And let’s be honest, the price is a major pro; you’re getting a functional, optics-ready firearm with a laser for less than many pistols alone.
Cons: The 10-round capacity is a practical limit, though sufficient for most civilian scenarios. The proprietary design means aftermarket support is limited compared to an AR-15 or Glock platform. Some find the aesthetics utilitarian, but this is a working tool, not a showpiece. That said, its reliability and purpose-built features more than compensate for those trade-offs.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the laser sight zeroable, and what type of battery does it use?
A: Yes, the red laser has windage and elevation adjustments for zeroing. It typically uses a common CR2 battery, which is easily sourced. We recommend checking the zero periodically, especially if the carbine is transported frequently.
Q: Can I mount a red dot sight or optic on this carbine?
A: The receiver is drilled and tapped for a scope base. Hi-Point offers a proprietary Picatinny rail mount (Model 995/4095 Scope Mount) that attaches directly, allowing you to add a red dot, scope, or other optics compatible with standard 1913 rails.
Q: How does the .40 S&W perform from a 17.5-inch carbine barrel?
A: The longer barrel provides a significant velocity increase over a 4-5 inch pistol barrel—often 200-300 feet per second more. This translates to better terminal performance and energy on target, making it a highly effective round for defense from this platform.
