Item has been relisted, you can find the new listing at: https://www.theoutdoorstrader.com/threads/fs-star-pd.2033486/
Item Name: FS Star PD

Location: Buford

Zip Code: 30518

Item is for: Sale Only
Sale Price: 385

Caliber: .45 acp

Willing to Ship: No

Bill of Sale Required?: No

Item Description: The "original" compact, lightweight .45 auto. Weighs approximately 25 oz empty and has an adjustable rear sight. It has a 4" barrel and is a very handy carry gun. Comes with one original Star 6-rd magazine and one aftermarket magazine which seems to work fine. I have personally shot approximately 75 rds of mixed hardball and 200gr lead SWC reloads through it with no malfunctions. The recoil buffer is still in good shape.

The Star PD was a favorite carry gun of Col. Jeff Cooper. This one is in decent (not perfect) condition and is a good shooter grade. Blue is approximately 85% and the aluminum frame has most of the original anodized finish remaining. This PD comes with the hard-to-find aftermarket Pachmayr wrap-around grips. Takedown is similar to the Browning P35 and the safety can be applied with the hammer cocked or hammer down. In the hammer down position, the safety retracts the hammer from the firing pin.

I'm selling because I acquired 2 of these in trades and I'm only keeping one. Own a piece of history!

Very fine gun.

Used to shoot one in a PPC style competition, and did very well, if I modestly say.

Still have the gun.

Didn't realize the Pachmayr was hard to find, it I'd know I would have treated them better. :hat:

Interesting! They're definitely a unique piece. I found out how hard it was to find the Pachmayrs when I tried to buy a set for my other PD. Pachmayr quit making them a number of years ago. The ones on this gun are in very good shape.
