So for that huge savings, throw on a new inner barrel, bushings, piston, spring guide and it should probably function just as well as the STAR.
Down the road, you could replace all the internals and end up with something very robust for much less than the cost of a top of the line manufacturer.
I had severe misfeeding issues with mine, seemed to be aggravated by installing a tightbore.
