Star Firestar Thumb Safety Detent / Plunger and Spring from a M45 Model .45ACP

Description: Up for sale is a Fine overall condition, seldom-seen Factory Original Thumb Safety Detent / Plunger and Spring for the .45 ACP Model Firestar M45 pistols. This part originated from a well cared-for Star Firestar M45 semiautomatic pistol chambered in .45 ACP. To confirm, this Listing includes the following TWO parts: - Thumb Safety Plunger (sometimes referred to as the Thumb Safety Detent) - Thumb Safety Plunger Spring (sometimes referred to as the Thumb Safety Detent Spring) NOTE THAT THE U.S. "Penny" / One-Cent Piece as seen in the last image, is NOT included in this Listing and is shown for illustrative / sizing / scale purposes only. Condition is fine overall: There is barely any evidence of use or wear, the Head of the Detent / Plunger is nicely intact and the Spring is responsive, it is straight with no bends or kinks, and most importantly: It has not been trimmed, clipped or modified in any way. Please examine the extensive image set provided - preferably on a large-screen desktop or laptop monitor, in order to get zoomed in close for the best look of the condition of the part. We want the Buyer to have a realistic expectation of the condition of the part when taking delivery. Priced per SCARCE AVAILABILITY and HIGH DEMAND, as - without question - these are THE MOST LOST PARTS of any Firestar Pistol. We were reluctant to sell, as these little parts are almost impossible to find in a standalone listing, in the event that WE end up needing them ourselves... The Safety is inoperable without these parts - and a gun is just not safe without a properly working safety! Please take every precaution to not lose them - or contain them adequately - when re-installing them, and as always, we recommend that all firearms parts are installed, inspected and function-tested by a competent gunsmith. COMPATIBLE MODELS: For the sake of those who build, restore, repair or otherwise tinker with restoration projects, we provide the following information: The parts in this Listing are originally from a Firestar (Single Stack) M45 pistol chambered in .45 ACP. Although nearly EVERY component on the M45 pistol is NOT compatible with other Firestar or Firestar Plus series pistols, these two parts MAY BE COMPATIBLE with the following pistols - It is ultimately up to the Buyer to determine cross-compatibility and fitment: - Star Firestar M43 (9mm Single Stack model) - Star Firestar M40 (.40 S&W Single Stack Model) - Star Firestar Plus M243 (9mm Double Stack Model) - Star Firestar Plus M240 (.40 S&W Double Stack Model) So again, there is a good probability these parts may work in any of the pistols listed above, but we make no formal recommendation of cross-compatibility beyond using them for the exact Firestar M45 Model like they were originally installed in. All Sales Final. PLEASE research your application with the utmost care: Parts Sales from the grouping of components we are offering that came from this pistol are final. These pistols are becoming a bit of a scarcity - as are parts for them - and there is extremely limited, CORRECT information available in print or on the internet for the enthusiast or collector of Star pistols. There are a lot of web pages and auction sites on the internet that incorrectly list these guns... To assist in your research, please do a Google Search for this E-Book: Evolución del arma corta en España ...it is probably the most comprehensive, and accurate, collection of information about Spanish pistols (Including Star pistols) that we have ever seen. It may be necessary to translate the contents if you do not speak Spanish, but your web browser should accommodate this.
