I have a 1956 made Star B that has been a pain to finally get running right, and with factory ammunition.
Sounds easy, but many of these require loads that are at or near the MOAL to feed correctly because the magazines were originally sized to run 9x23 Largo.
Replacing the magazine springs with .38 Super, 1911 springs fixed the issue and it runs 115 and 124 grain factory rounds perfectly, now.
It is a fine shooting pistol, and much more fun without malfunctions. Had it out last weekend and put it through the paces.
Love these old toys!
