The D series is a compact, .380 ACP (9 mm Browning Short) calibre variants of the model A/B series of 1911-inspired Star pistols. It is designed for commercial sales as a self-defence weapon. All D-series weapons seem to be of approximately the exact same external configuration, with the same length slide and grip frame, a semi-circular front sight and so on.  In 1928 the more conventional control configuration was re-introduced, with a rear-mounted thumb safety on the left side. This gun remained in production until probably 1983. The DK version was an obvious step to take with the compact pistol when aluminium alloys became a real possibility in the 1950s. The DK, was also sometimes branded as “Starfire,” in a prescient crossover of markings. The “DK” marks are on the butt as usual for Classic era guns, but the “Starfire” brand is on the right side of the slide, stylized, in much the way that Modern era Firestar, Megastar, or Ultra star brands were marked. Other changes generally brought the pistol up to current standards, with an arched backstrap, one-piece hammer, conventionally mounted sights, and so forth. The frame encompasses the magazine, and only a small portion is available for grabbing to remove, via protruding, grooved panels. This pistol is light weight, subcompact and semi- automatic, making it perfect for concealed carry and self-defence.
