MKS Supply is giving their Hi-Point .380 ACP a yeet into the new year. No, they aren’t chucking their .380s out of the line, rather they’re giving it the full Yeet Cannon treatment with the release of the YC380. This will add a threaded barrel, the new style grips, reshaped slide with optics mounting options and the Glock style replaceable front sight, as well as a double stack 10-round magazine. MSRP is still a very reasonable $229, and they’re covered by Hi-Point’s lifetime warranty. Check out the press release info below:
MKS Supply Introduces the YC380: New Hi-Point .380 Handgun
MKS Supply, The exclusive distributor of Hi-Point Firearms, is thrilled to announce the launch of the Hi-Point YC380 .380 Handgun. This eagerly awaited addition to the Hi-Point lineup combines superior performance, the new “Yeet Cannon” design, and enhanced versatility to meet the needs of firearm enthusiasts and professionals alike.
The Hi-Point YC380 stands for “Yeet Cannon” and is the latest addition to the Yeet family line up, following the wildly successful YC9. Like all Hi-Points, the YC380 comes with the Hi-Point Lifetime warranty. The Yeet Cannon was named by the supporters of Hi-Point Firearms during a contest they called “The peoples pistol- name our nine”. The YC380 comes out as HI Point’s top-tier .380 handgun, equipped with a threaded barrel that enhances its adaptability for various accessories. The 1/2-28 threads on the 4.12″ barrel length allows users to effortlessly attach suppressors, compensators, and other muzzle devices, elevating the shooting experience to new heights and offering customers more options. Other features include a Glock style replaceable front sight, new stylized grips, backstrap safety, reversable backstrap for a more customized fit, a new styled slide for a better look, adaptable for mounting a red dot plate and a proprietary double to single stack magazine.
The new YC380 will come in a black/steel grey version with and without the threaded barrel and a model with “YEET CANNON” boldly engraved on the slide.
