A couple of questions that I think need answering.

What is a home made basement effort, and how does a home made basement effort differ from a factory made effort ?

It is a legal reproduction. How the hell is anyone going to get a gun registered without making one first ?

Making guns is legal in Canada.

PS, I am not 100% sure that the screws should be...

You must be joking. It will take at least three months to get that done. As it happens I spoke to Mr Smith today. I told him I want my drum sten back, I asked him where in the que it was and was...

Does any one know where I can get some good close up photos of a MkI front sight ? I have a MkI* as good as finished apart from the front sight, I just need to know what it should look like to...

No:D That's the last thing I would build.


I did indeed get my mill from machine tools wearhouse. I have rapidly come to the conclusion that I need a flood coolant system for it. I am gethering...

When you thought you had seen em all:madsmile:

That don't look bad at all. How does it shoot with the long barrel ?

The magwell collar looks like a Mk1.

You are always talking about an unrestricted sten without an anteater look:madsmile: Why not make one ? Maybe you could even persuade Dix to part with his long barrel :)

I think they are nice...

I did some test firing before giving the MkIII's a finish this evening, the windage is spot on. I was a bit concerned about this with the fixed front sights. The new machine is doing it's job.

That sounds familiar. If I were you I would be tempted to send it to them so as to get it sorted once and for all. Let them know you are serious, I have a feeling you will be waiting forever...

Lots of views, but not any posts recently. Perhaps Claven2 etc have become bored with sten guns:confused:

I've been busy learning how to use the new milling machine, it's nice to be able to...

You could make one.

I have refinished a couple of guns that had a " patina" . It looks just like fine rust to me.

Probably not what you want to hear, but if I were you I would refinish the entire gun.

I don't think stens ever had a proper safety, but I can't think why.

Here's a simple selector / safety switch conversion. It works really well.

I think they got us on the design.

That's an easy problem to solve, call it something else. How about calling it a Tonygun:)


I just this minute came in from testing firing a gun that's been bought by someone called Tony, but...

No news yet ?




Don't worry about welding the pins, it's not necessary.

I have a new sear disconnect design which I think will work well. Using this design it should also be possible to use...

Brass is softer than steel. Works for me every time.

I did much the same thing with mine. SVD mount with a red dot.

Looks first class:super:

The above post should read NOS P17

Whack it with a big hammer and a brass drift and it will move.
