The Colt marked version is pricey as Colt never went through with the deal w/Star. Import problems, etc. Only a very few of the Colt marked guns were made up.
The FI and IJ versions were made in USA or at least assembled w/foreign parts here because of the import ban on the pistol.
Locked breech w/a barrel link as the Colt 1911 but just the one locking lug though as Moondawg says. I doubt alot of assembly line Colt 1911's actually lock on both lugs anyway.
I don't recall mine haveing a magazine safety as is common on the other Star autos. But it was along time ago.
Neat little pistol.
