I was prowling around an independently owned local gun store today. I came across a small 380 auto that looks like a mini 1911. The owner said he got it from an estate sale and couldn’t find any info on it. The medallion on the grips said FI Industires, Washington, DC. From the limited info I can find on it, it appears to be a Star manufactured pistol that was originally supposed to be a joint venture with Colt. I didn’t have a camera so no pictures. I did a search here under FI Industries and Star and couldn’t turn up any hits. I looked on Gun Broker and same result.
It’s smaller than a Bersa Thunder but very heavy, seems well built.
Is anyone familiar with this pistol, it’s reputation and current value?
