Stars Want to Sell/Want to Buy / SOLD and Shipped: Star Universal in .38
« on: December 06, 2014, 01:53:27 pm »
This machine is sold and shipped. Thanks for all your interest.
Beautiful Star Universal in .38 special, barely used by my Father - Complete and including 3 primer pickup tubes, Hulme case feeder with 3 tubes, and Brewster indexer. Also includes a 2nd powder bar (3.5 BE), a new style taper crimp die, and a 2nd seating stem for 158gn SWC which didn't make it into the pics. Selling for $950 + shipping from 32068.
I left the platform Dad put together for this attached when I took the pics, because I intend to post this locally in a few days... But would not necessarily recommend the increased shipping cost to send this unless you really have a use for it.
Please PM me with any questions or send me your email for better resolution pics. Thanks, Daniel

Gentlemen, up for sale is what I am told is a Phelps Deluxe reloader. As you can see below it is a copy of the Star Universal.
It is a used machine, not rebuilt, so finishes are original, and appears to be in good working order. I have included a Star powder magazine, a Star primer mag, and small primer pickup tube to complete the setup - which is in .38 special.
Have seen these on 'the bay' for up to $750, but wanted to offer this here on the forum before going down that road.
Thought someone who regularly loads multiple calibers (and tired of changing tool-heads and primer assemblies) might well have good use for this. Selling for $400 + shipping and ppal. Please PM me with any questions or send your email and I can provide some better resolution pics. Thanks all. Best regards, Daniel

Star Reloaders / About this Machine?
« on: June 06, 2014, 08:46:06 pm »
I want to ask if some of you more experienced members could please help me verify what this actually is?
This mostly (to me) appears to be a Star Universal in .38 but there are some differences I have not seen before:
1. The whole base is thicker, with the outer top edge more squared off.
2. The way the powder drop actuator arm is mounted to the base.
3. The whole brass primer slide body itself is more blocky, 'fatter'.
4. No half moon scallop cut out (for the top pin clearance?) on the piece the primer mag slides in.
5. The shell retainer clips at each station are really rounded over on the top outside edge, rather than squared off.
6. No 'OO' on the side of the powder drop body, although it takes a 00 powder slide.
7. No 'Star Machine Works etc' engraving on top of the tool head flange between station 6 and 1.

I'm attaching some photo to help illustrate. The label on the tool head has been mostly worn away, hard to say how, unless someone had a hose clamp there at one time mounting/working on some gadget.
Any input on this would be most appreciated. I am not familier enough with all the earlier stages of star evolution to know if this might be a very early model, a prototype, or just what to think??.....
Again, I would thank you for any input/info you could provide. Please PM me if you need a better pic or any sort of clarification or detail. Best regards, Daniel.
