Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Star Model B is a single-action semi-automatic pistol that fires the 9 mm Parabellum pistol cartridge. It was produced by Star Bonifacio Echeverria, S.A. in Spain as a derivative of the Star Model A in 9x23mm Largo. It is visually similar to and inspired by the M1911 series of pistols. However, it is mechanically different in several ways. The Model B was chambered in 9mm Luger and was intended for export outside of Spain, being produced for 52 years from 1931 to 1983 when replaced by the similar "Super" series. Aesthetically, the Model B is similar to the later 1911A1, thus sharing features like the trigger guard relief cuts, larger ejection port, and arched backstrap. Model Bs were sold with wooden grips until sometime postwar, after which many had plastic grips instead. Stars are also usually blued; 1911s were originally blued until WWII, and most military examples are Parkerized instead. The Model B has several key functional differences: it lacks the grip-mounted safety present on the 1911, and the backstrap is non-removable and does not feature the mainspring housing like the Colt does. Stars also feature a hinged trigger and external extractor, as opposed to the Colt's straight trigger and internal extractor.
