Star Model S Pistol Thanks to Kyrie Ellis / Moderator - Cruffler_Forum on Yahoo Groups for his contribution for this page ... Star_S_L.jpg Left side of Star Model S, chambered for the 9 m/m Corto (.380 ACP). Note the Star Company name and address, and the caliber designation on the center of the slide. Also note the proof marks of the Eibar proof house on the frame above the trigger, and at rear of the slide above the thumb safety. Star_S_L_CU.jpg Close up of the left side of slide and frame; the proof date code of "Q" indicates it was proofed in 1946. Star_S_R.jpg Right side of the same Star Model S. Note Spanish Air Force Crest on slide, and frame. Also of interest is the Air Force property number ("06401") above the trigger; other markings ("QAI MAI FL") on the frame are importer's marks.
