I too have a PD, one of my favourite 45s. Make sure you keep buffers in it, and don't dry fire it too much, the firing pin will break. - dan

Dan-this one came with all the papers from Spain. The mag follower had one slim line accross it, no brass bits around the bolt face. Looks new. George

Star pistols are probably the most underrated handguns out there. I've never talked to anyone who's owned one that didn't really like it.

Good for you George, it sounds like a nice pistol. I like mine a lot. - dan

Star PDs were very highly regarded carry pistols in the 1980s. I hope you enjoy your new toy. Regards, Richard

I remember Colonel Jeff Cooper saying "A Star PD should be shot little, but carried often". High praise from the guru of Colt 1911's.

I have many Star pistols, and being Spanish myself, I always new they were very good pistols,,,lol. Anyways, Im in the process of buying a PD but was wondering what price I should offer a used one but in very good condition?

Star 22 input

Hope I'm not hi-jacking this thread. I just bought a used Star 22 on the EE. Only had it to the range once but really like it.

It's a small gun but feels really comfortable in my hand. It's got good weight (weighs about the same as my Glock 17) and seems to balance nicely in my hand.

I've been looking around though and can't find much info on CGN about these pistols. Are there many owners out there? What do people tend to think of them?

From what I've seen so far they may be good quality for the coin.

George, email me the pics and I can post them for you.

Strangeday bought a .45 Firestar for $75, then recently sold it for $350. AAARRRRR.
