The Star PD has an excellent reputation and Star makes some pretty decent firearms. The Star PD is actually bringing a bit of a "premium" these days, as they are considerably more costly than the 9mm BM; which for the most part, is a very similar firearm. The PD does have an aluminum frame, so it is light weight from a carry standpoint, but the suggestion that you not feed it a steady diet of +p ammo is a good one, as over time it will take its toll on the alloy frame.
