I purchased a Firestar Plus back when Star was still in business. Thought it would be a great car gun. Never did anything with it. Sat in a nylon holster with mags since mid 90's.
Got it out today to clean. Removed the slide stop, but the slide will not go forward to come off the frame. Seems to be hitting around the trigger.
Have not gotten rough with it. Tried changing the safety from on to off, putting a magazine in and removed, even cyclig the trigger. Also tried flipping it upside down to see if something loose is keeping the side from going forward.
Figure if I break something, this NIB Firestar Plus is toast.
If no one here has an idea, may just go run a box through it. Maybe cycling it 50 times will lossen something up.
Just joined, but have been lurking.
