Star Firestar / Firestar Plus Pistols - Casual Armory 

Always loved mine. Just felt so right in my hand. Loved the weight. And personally was deadly accurate and confident in it.

I have an M-40 , and yes, they are heavier than polymer pistols, but the weight mitigates the recoil. Mine is smooth, accurate and reliable. I suits my needs just fine.

I have the M40, which is chambered in .40 S&W, and use it as my carry piece ... It is heavy for sure, but a pleasure to shoot ...

Great gun!.. I'd love to find one at a LGS priced affordably.

Love Star pistols!! Have the Megastar, 30M and Firestar. Great firearms, inverted slide rails, 1911 manual of arms, beefy construction, easy to clean and maintain.

I bought my 40 cal Firestar in 94. Still goes bang every time. Just sad that Star is no longer producing firearms.

I also find the Firestar's trigger to be nice. The take-up to the wall is a little creepy. But the break is crisp, and the sight picture remains undisturbed through the break. It definitely feels meatier and sturdier in the hands than polymer sub-compacts.

This single stack contains 7 rounds only + one in chamber, there are 8 rounds with mag extention also!

The firestars were way ahead of their time. Texture on the front strap and the back strap. A high cut trigger guard. On top of all that if you run out of ammo you can pistol whip some one with it.

Excellent pistols both. Firestar, Firestar Plus, A, B, Super, BM, PD, 28, 29, 30, 31 are all great pistols. 30 years with Star and maybe 3 issues. Beat that Glock!

Tengo la M43 desde 1992, excelente, segura, le cambié empuñaduras por las de madera y punteras de fibra; con buen trato son de total confianza... y cada vez más caras (colección)... Saludos

I love Star ..

I personally Love the Firestar! It’s a gun that I’ve always been able to shoot well. I’ve shot the .40 & .45 many times and I love ‘em. I’m only 5’5” and barely 100lbs but it’s still a really comfortable gun. I don’t really like the polymer guns. (Unfortunately my state has limited our capacity to ten rounds so the single stack doesn’t really matter now. 🤷🏻‍♀️😔)

I had M.43 for about 10 years. this was great gun. small, surprisly accurate, easy to conceal, 100% reliable. I shot several thousands thru it. selling it was great mistake. this is the most modern all steel SA pisol, great oposition to polymer modern crap.

Still have mine that I fought in Afghanistan with!

I own a 1994 firestar it's in perfect condition and runs perfectly. The finish is awesome I think your right they are pretty strong guns thank you for the video.

Very cool

I think their great little pistols 👍

I once owned two of the single stack 9mms. They were good shooters. Unfortunately, I had to sell them after acquiring a first gen. Glock 19.

You're missing the point. Firestar's were the first small full 9mmx19 locked breach pistols that were affordable. The other was the Detonic's pocket nine. It was as I remember a direct blowback. Kicked like a mule.

I have a Firestar Plus and really like the size. It's fits right in-between my CZ Rami and CZ P01 and it's lighter than the Rami. Did you disconnect the magazine safety or did yours come that way on the Plus?

They don't make them like they used to. S&w 59 series, Beretta 80, 92 series, of which I have two, they go bang every time. Never jam. Plastic is junk.

The gun isn't heavy I held one this afternoon it was just right

Did you catch the Forgotten Weapons investment guns video? I think it was last week

My Model 30MI is built to last and will cycle most any ammo.....

Just a question: in the Netherlands, a politician was killed using the Star Firestar m-43. He was shot close range (1,5 to max 2 meters) trough the head. How likely is it, that the skull remaind perfectly intact? I mean, wouldn't his head be cracked like a coconut? I hope anyone can answer.

Where did you get the magazines for the the Firestar Plus?

Where made the Firestar?

😂😂

Correction: mine is a double stack 9mm, the firestar plus & I love it..

Are all the firestar plus models double stack? I have one but it's single stack magazine?
