Overview
Overview
It is this lightness and lack of safety features that make this a fast gun. At one time the Star Model S was the official sidearm of the Spanish Foreign Legion. The Star Model S was imported into the United States by the Interarms company of Alexandria, Virginia. Interarms went out of business in early 1990s at about the same time the Star company went out of business. The Star Model S is no longer manufactured.
It is associated with Spain.
