Glad you like them!

I agree with you

Thank you.

No, I should have let the bolt go forward before removing the rear cap so there would have been less spring tension on the cap.

@@BWEFirearms regardless, You still owned that bitch!!

Thanks. Just let me know when you are coming up.

I do too, so does my wife.

That would be a good way to do it.

I am not a huge fan of them as they are a crude sheet metal subgun and the rate of fire is too high in my opinion. I have parts kits for them that I will probably never build as they are just not a fun or comfortable subgun to shoot.

Yes it is.

To be fair the Sterling is a Rolls Royce compared to the Sten. Smoother and much more ergonomic.

@@TheArmourersBench I read a really good book on the sterling recently,lol

@@kez0o9 was it mine? Haha

@@TheArmourersBench yes, under your pseudonym 😉

I have to agree.

I think about twenty grand.

Online metals should have stainless steel tube the correct diameter. I don't know if anyone makes an 80% Sterling receivers. I just get the tube and cut my own. I don't know of anyone who makes Sterling barrels.

@@BWEFirearms Have a funny story! I tried like 25 years ago to build a antique sten and had no tools. Purchased a kit for 50 bucks! Found back in windows 95 days a place that sells sten tube receivers brought one but back then they charge you to turn the inside diameter of tube like a extra hundred bucks! so brought the thing couldnt fit the parts together! purchased a bycycle reaming tool! Took a drill reamed the tube out with oil and reamer. went to weld it together and tube shrunk! had to take it apart again and ream it again! cause I read that over in europe duriing world war two people got the kits cut down metal fence posts and used them as receiver tubes! and didnt care if it every worked just wanted a sten gun prop around! Then lost it in storage shed with all my stuff! Then started selling the kits with out barrels in the future! and now have a couple of places that sell the tubes but you have to order online and send money order in a week or they send your money back. So what happened to sten it just rusted like a care inside and out side in one years cause it wasnt stainless steel!

Yes, but you have to modify the Sten bolt to work with Sterling magazines.

I have to agree.

For normal daily cleaning in the field it was never practise to remove the barrel, ejector, trigger guard etc. This weapon was really simple to maintain and use.

The British military no longer uses the Sterling.

Glad to help

Congratulations.

Just the trigger pack.
