Well, seeing as how I ended up with one of each,
seemed like I should have a shootout to see which handles the best!
Both have almost the same length slide, but because S&W put the safety/decocker in the slide,
the S&W's barrel is shorter...this did give a slight advantage to the Star...
Got the mate to my CS45 on Friday!
Should make for a fun range day...
especially since it'll also be tested against a Star M205 (Ultrastar) ;)
& just for giggles & squish...
my Ballester-Molina needs some range time as well...
ya just can't let 'em get comfy in the safe ;)
