American Rifleman's Mark Keefe takes a look at the Star Firestar, an ergonomically designed pistol intended for concealed carry that was far ahead of its time. Though Star and their importer, Interarms, are now both out of business, the smooth-shooting Firestar still has a cult following that make them extraordinarily desirable in the second-hand market. For more on this well-designed carry gun, check out this segment of "I Have This Old Gun" from a recent episode of American Rifleman TV
