STAR Model B (not BS) 9x19mm magazine upgrade and grips

cults3d

I bought STAR model B in 9x19mm caliber. I had some problems caused by magazines - some FTF, FTE etc... So I started digging - about history of this model, searched infos on all kind forums (in many languages) and even started to compare this model to original 1911 in 9mm. And found out that Mod. B was also produced in 9x23mm Largo caliber (mainly).... on the same frame. I mean the SAME frame - identical dimensions, the same magazines etc... So i used idea that was based on idea implemented by original Colt .45 to 9mm conversion... or kinda of. So in simple way - I design and add some "insert" to magazine (which shorten the inside space by few mm along the length), which make that shorter 9x19 Para cartridge (than 9x23 Largo) wont gonna jam inside at strange angle. Also - I designe some simple but effective follower, which work flawlessly in my "magazine insert". Added v.2 follower. Ahhh yes. If you want to yse this modification - you need original magazines ;) Also - you need some single stack 1911 9mm spring. And no - i design it in TinkerCad - so i dont own any CAD files. I added grips - maybe they are not pretty - but they work.
