Check out the Ruger P89 and P90. Low price. Very dependable and accurate handgun

(Actually, being a non-resident alien myself, I couldn't if I wanted to)

If this is the case I didnt think it would even be possible to buy from a store and pass the background check.

Ahhhhhh.I wouldn't say Hi-Points are anything but ugly.Def not reliable.Get a used Taurus .357 w/a 4 in. barrel.They can be had for under $300 and fed .38's and shotshells.

My first handgun was a Hi-Point 9mm and it never let me down. I'd bet I had

5000 rounds through mine before I sold it. And with the lifetime warranty that's hard to beat. If you're looking for a one to be used and abused thats a good choice for an auto.

If I was in your shoes I would get a good snub nose 357 or 38. Rat shot in those would take care of the snakes and the 357 would make a good backup gun for the hogs or home defense. You can find used Taurus or Rossi snubs for $250 to $300. Hard to beat the reliability of a good revolver.
