Frank, yes, the SVW 45 does have the star stamped on the right side of the slide. One thing about it that has me wondering is the stamped sheet metal grips. I can't reason out why the regular plastic grips were not used. Making the the dies, molds or whatever they used, plus designing and making the machinery to stamp the grips out seems really dumb to me when the plastic grips would do just fine. Any thoughts on this? Maybe this should be on the P38 forum but I'm not really that curious.
