Star Model 1914 at a Backup Gun Match
This video showcases the Star Model 1914 pistol in a backup gun competition. Despite some technical issues with video capture, the pistol itself performed better than expected. The Star Model 1914, a single-action, simple blowback pistol chambered in .32 ACP, was adopted by the French army as a wartime substitute. The competition is designed for compact handguns and revolvers, with stages featuring a dummy gun draw and swap. The presenter achieved a respectable 4th place out of 28 participants, highlighting the gun's reliability even with a century-old magazine.
