Disassembled my STAR Firestar M45 for a much-needed cleaning, and a re-spring.
Ordered a kit from Wolff-GunSprings.
The last couple times I had this out (which was a long time ago) the recoil spring seemed really weak, and the Slide-action was really slow.
It would struggle to load the next round also.
It's extremely dirty too, which is part of the problem.........
I acquired this Handgun when I lived in AZ from a coworker.
The story was that this used to be his Uncle's Duty-Gun.........
It was always a really nice-shooting weapon. For a compact 45 it's quite heavy, and my Wife even enjoyed shooting this one..........said it was her favorite, back when she used to go shooting with me.
I carried it at times in AZ.
It's just been sitting in the Safe for around a decade now..................It's time to give it some much-needed attention.
She's Dirty!
I should be ashamed................
