I just seen one at Cowen's Aution House for $204 if anyone interested.I had a 1962 Firecat and was very impressed with how well it was made. Much tighter tolerances than the modern day stuff I've seen.

Anyone that knows the internals can it be safely carried chambered[?]
I should be in as good shape at 106.$350 for a well worn one with rust/blueing issues. Run of the mill seems to be $400-500 range. In a condition like jar's, I'd expect $500 range. Not perfect but no major cosmetic flaws.
I use a Progressive press but had to alter a shell plate made for a 45-70's to accept .25 ACP shell holders that I modified to fit into the 45-70 plate. This works surprisingly well. I get about 200 per hour because they do require more care loading, so it's a lot slower than loading .45 ACP.( I will note that reloading for .25 ACP could be considered "unsafe," at least to the fingers that get pinched while running a round into the seater die.)
Well it was Star or Astra?, that were considered the "Colt" of Spain there lbmikey.My Browning .25 has Colt written all over it I also have several Star CO .25 pistols that are well made and accurate...all steel and sell for less than a Baby.
Ah, thanks for the info there Bill DeShivs.I'm not Mikey, but- Astra made guns for Colt. The Junior Colt was an Astra Cub in either .22 short or .25 ACP.
