    I was going to suggest Gunnutz but I see you already have an ad there. There's a bronze bolt over on the 12X sale forum...

    Making a Sten barrel is simplicity itself if you have a 7" length of rifled 9mm blank. From simple to very simple depending on the mark/type you want

    Or as in past I've made one from a straight tube of barrel and a machined collar like they were apparently done by factory...sweat together, cross pin and go.

    There have been Sten bits and pieces in the last few auctions. Prices have been insane. A bolt and barrel could exceed $1000.
    Making a barrel would certainly be an option. A piece of .35 caliber barrel and a buddy with a lathe and chamber reamer would be needed. If the blank diameter is too small for a one piece barrel, a barrel can be made in two pieces, as many original Mk. II barrels were fabricated. Pretty basic shop operations.
