So far, I haven't found any specific ones, but it looks like generic "slide" type holsters will work.

Where did these guns come from? Are they police /military issure from spain?/QUOTE]
Mine must have been either a Police/Military surplus or a Spanish commercial version intended to sell only in Spain. I say this because the onwers manual is written in Spanish only with no English instructions! Also on the frame is C.A.I.'s import stamp that I have seen on several C&R guns that I own. They import alot of surplus and sell to other distributors.
I also have owned a Star B that is becoming one of my favorite pistols to shoot at the range. I've had it for about 6 months now and I enjoy shooting it more and more. I hope my Star BM will live up to my Star B. I had some reliability problems with the Star B at first but after tweaking the mag follower, it has been almost 100%. I would not trust it as a self defense gun because it was originally designed to fire a longer round than the 9mm Luger (9x23 IIRC). The Star BM was intended as a 9x19 from the get-go so it should be a little more reliable.
As far as spare parts as concerned, I just bought a spare gun. It should be here by Sat. When a firing pin costs $30 and a entire gun cost $129, you might as well get the whole thing.
I used to think the 1911 design was overrated until I felt the difference between the rounded mainspring housing and the flat. I like the rounded MUCH better. The Star B is sort of like a 1911 but a little slimmer and it shoots cheap 9mm ammo so I can practice more often. I think I see a Colt 1911 in .45 in my future again. I would like to get a real military issue one in decent shape. Maybe the Sistema Colt?
Since they are so similar to the 1911 will a 1911 9mm magazine work?
Anyways, now when you say you've got a BM in your pants it could mean something entirely different!
