I think the old Spanish "STAR" Brand Automatics are interesting for several reasons.
Most of them for quite a while, or from about 1920 through the 1970s or so, regardless of Cartridge ( whether in .380, 9mm P-'08, 9mm Bergmann-Bayard/9mm , or .45 ACP ) emulated the basic design or layout and amenities/features anyway, of the John Browning designed Colt Model "O".
They have always been thought of as having been well made, and, reliable, and, various of them in their day, were mainstays of many foreign Military and Police.
If you have a 'STAR" Automatic, please post some images of it, and, tell us a little about it?
