It's a pity that someone didn't think to show her how to fit the stock properly to the Sten before taking the picture. Because it looks like she has the lower hook inserted into the rear of the trigger guard housing but the upper part of the stock plate is outside of the recess in the end of the receiver.
She's just having trouble getting it into the hole.
No, she's doing it exactly right F-10. Start to hook the hook part under the trigger mech housing box, then use that to rotate/lever down the ring part onto the return spring cap, press down and slide butt assembly up into the overhand and it'll click into place. Done it a zillion times. Different if you have the button type butt of course!
What is the story about the photo? I'm assuming it was taken at Long Branch, those being Canadian made Stens. What are the things racked up to the left of the bench?
I found it when I was searching for something else. Here’s another one I haven’t seen before.

There’s what looks like a hand tap on the bench. Is she fitting the dust cover?
Here are some pictures of breech block production.

So, that woodwork in the background is what, Cooey trainers? 85s?
