Star Pistol Serial Numbers

Numbers

Since it looks like natafer's question has been answered, I have a very similar one of my own. I just got my first two Stars, two Model B pistols from J&G sales. Both are blued with the same marks as natafer's gun: 1945 date proof mark and P in the flaming bomb. They also have the Cal 08 mark on the barrel near the ejection mark. The serial numbers of the guns are about 4,000 apart, one in the 274,1XX range and the other in the 278,1XX range. If the previous gun in this thread was likely a West German police model, is it safe to say that my two guns are also likely West German police issue?

The two guns are very interesting to me. One of them has a piece of paper taped to the side of the slide with the word 'Baja' on it, while the other has a magazine with a taped piece of paper saying 'STTE Gomez.' So while I have never been one to name firearms, these two have been dubbed Baja and Gomez. Baja has two different grip panels, plastic on one side and wood on the other, while Gomez is wooden on both sides. I also find it interesting that Baja has a curved frame at the base of the grip, while Gomez is straight like most 1911-style pistols, even though their serial numbers are so close. Is the reason for the two different frame styles known?

Star 9mm Serial Number Question? Mar 29, 2008 Messages: 3. I am wondering if anyone knows anthing about this pistol my father left me. It is a Star Model B, Serial number 460071. I am unable to find very much information on.

Anyway, here are some pictures of my two newest pistols, Baja and Gomez. I'll look into those books. I took the guns out shooting yesterday. One was extremely accurate and the other was acceptably accurate. Both had the double feed issue going on with brass, aluminum and lacquered steel cases.

I plan on finding some non-lacquered steel case 9 mm ammo to try out before I do anything else to try and alleviate the problem. The only other issue was the right side grip on one of the guns broke in two pieces while shooting. I have glued it back together but plan on ordering some replacement grips.

I found 4S grips on the internet and they look really good. Does anyone have experience ordering from his website?

Star B I need help understanding some of the stamps on my Star B. It’s been in a gun safe (clean and oiled) for the past 21 years.
