The missus' first surplus is a Star BM and it's still one of her favorite firearms. Extremely accurate and reliable. She loves cleaning her too! Great video, sir!

I had a star PD 45 ACP it was a great pistol. Probably more accurate than most 1911 s

Looks like you have a Guardia Civil pistol there. That's the Spanish equivalent of the french Gendarmerie, being a mostly rural police , keeping some paramilitary missions in war.

You can use a P225 mag in that with a dremel modification that takes 2 minutes

I just wonder whether the Star is a DA/SA pistol. I’m from Spain and I never saw a police officer carrying cocked’n locked.

@@felixthecat9315 The Model B (and BM) is single action. Some of the later Stars were DA/SA, like the 28M and the 30M, as well as the FireStar.

Smith & Wesson has brought the Star BM back, and they even named the remake CSX, after a railroad.

Never thought of the CSX as the re-birth of the Star BM, but I see exactly where you coming from. 👍
