I read in a Spanish forum a post from a former Civil Guard, he said the jamming problem in the Star Super B is the magazine, and he recomend metal cased ammo and put 6 rounds instead of 7 and problem solved

Guys, I received my pistol and I was dissapointed.
I send it back and asked for an exchange but Anthony told me he don't see nothing wrong with it.
The condition is... hmmm... I don't want to bash but... Judge by yourself...
Rust inside the pistol pretty much everywhere that I can see.
The slide also jam in the back and both mags are very-very hard to insert and remove. I'm sure aside the rust, this pistol have machanical problems.
I saw all the videos about the Star Model B Super on Youtube and I can't even remove the slide from the frame, something jam.
Tell me what you think of the pistol ?
Maybe I'm crazy, tell me if its the case.
I owned alot of firearms over the years and I will not accept something in this condition.

Nice pistol just need a deep clean and that's it! You will love it!
I honestly don't think its preservative oil. Doesn't smell like preservative stuff of any kind.
Maybe you're right but I saw alot of presarvative stuff in my life and this reaaaally looks like rust to me.
I returned the pistol so if someone want to buy it, you know where it is
I will try to find one on the EE.
If I don't find one, I'll pass and buy something else.
Maybe I'm overreacting, if its the case I'm sorry everyone
It is grease. I asked my friend who was an armorer for the Spanish military. He says it's exactly what they use. It is orange-is, but wipes right off.Originally Posted by ben777lemay

Rust is different.
Did you try to clean it?
JP do you had to wipe this stuff ?
Mine has it. I wiped it off. Or, you can just leave it. It's a good grease. Kind of like the Swiss K31 Waffenfett. Once you remove it, it is not smooth action anymore lol
I'm a big fan of Automatenfett and Waffenfett. This stuff is nowhere near the Swiss grease.
It is *sweating* brown stuff all over the place...
Believe me you can't leave it like that with all the #### sweating everywhere from the pistol.
I'm sure if you fire the pistol with this stuff still inside, other people will laugh at your ass when they will see your face full of this ####.
I can't say its smooth, it is far from smooth !
I may have a few questions for you :
1- Is it normal that when you activate the mag release, the mag don't even pop out by a thousand of an inch and you must pull the mag with considerable force like it is stuck in the frame ? Both mags are like that.
2- Is it normal that when you pull the slide back it stays back ( jamed ) even when the slide release in not engaged ? You can see it in a pic in one of my previous post. The only ways to *unjam* the slide is to pull the slide forward or to hit the frame with your second hand.
3- When I try to remove the slide, it won't come out. Looks like I will have to gently hit the slide with a soft mallet. Like I said, I saw all the videos of the Star model B on Youtube and I did exactly the same as in all the videos and the slide won't come out and it should be very easy, is that normal ?
