I qualified with a Firestar 40 for off duty and we had a guy that carried a Firestar 45 on duty. They were heavy, but I liked. They are single action only, and I liked that too, a lot more than DA or DA/SA.

The only thing I didn't like about them is that whoever imported Star firearms quit importing them and there was no supply of spare parts if anything broke. You might want to check to see if anyone else is importing them now.
