STAR BM 9MM LUGER (9x19 PARA)

Description:
Guns Listing ID: 557850



The Star BM is a compact semi-automatic pistol manufactured by the now-defunct Spanish company Star Bonifacio Echeverria, S.A., between the early 1970s and early 1990s. Chambered in 9mm Parabellum (9x19mm), the Star BM was designed as a military and police sidearm and was widely adopted by Spanish law enforcement and military units. Its design closely resembles the iconic Colt 1911, with similar aesthetics and controls, though it operates using a single-action mechanism and does not feature a grip safety.

Built with an all-steel construction, the Star BM weighs approximately 34 ounces unloaded, providing a solid, durable feel and excellent recoil control for a compact pistol. It features a 3.77-inch barrel and utilizes an 8-round single-stack magazine, making it slim and easy to carry, particularly for concealed use. The slide-mounted safety, fixed iron sights, and traditional hammer-fired operation contribute to its reliability and ease of use in defensive or duty roles.

The Star BM gained popularity in recent years among civilian shooters and collectors, especially in the U.S., due to surplus imports. Many admire its old-world craftsmanship, affordability, and shootability. Despite being out of production, parts and support are still available through dedicated suppliers and gunsmiths.

Overall, the Star BM is respected for its ruggedness, accuracy, and simplicity. It remains a solid choice for those looking for a budget-friendly, classic 9mm pistol with proven military and police service history.
