The shank of the screw needs to be large enough that one half of it is engaging the collar, and one half engaging the bushing, with enough engagement to hold the barrel in. I suspect that a number...

Registered and FaRT'd?

As an experiment, put a blank tube into a trigger box/head casing unit, and measure to see how long it would have be to shroud a 18 1/2"+ barrel. I don't think you would find it appealing. Although...

The casing in the photo above is a piece of 1 1/2" EMT - pretty thin. There are some 4130 options as well. Those photos were taken some time ago, applied a quick and dirty coat of BBQ paint since...

How can that be done? With an 18 1/2"+ barrel, Stens get really long. Bad enough with the US mandated 16" barrels. With the 8" barrel a Sten is about 30" long. Add 10 1/2", its up over 40". The...

Well, its going to be a bit of work to rebuild your earlier guns to the newly agreed upon design, but that is preferable to losing them as prohibs.
How is your Suomi affected by all this?

So, what are the implications of your agreement respecting your Stens? Are they being reclassified as restricted?

Today's the day!

The FRT number for a SAS type gun is not active, and cannot be used to register a gun. Don't even try. The FRT numbers for the SaskSten guns are active, but cannot be used either. There may be...

Would it make any difference to the second disconnect if the cam were at a steeper angle, so that the downward movement of the tripping lever were more abrupt, and perhaps more positive?
Would this...

With the bolt closed, the tip of the tripping lever is visible through the cocking handle slot. This bolt extension would mask the tripping lever tip, making it more difficult to bypass the...

A refusal to issue a certificate or licence can be appealed in court.

Just to clarify - a person fills out an application to register, either online, or on paper. Either method requires a FRT number and verifier information, whether the verifier is a voice on the...

That is a very positive sign. Means that the concept has not been categorically rejected.

Hardened steel is irrelevant to a cutting disc and grinder. Or a carbide drill bit. A common hardware store masonry bit will cut steel if sharpened.
It could be argued that what is acceptable to...

Cut the handle off. Drill or grind the stump until bolt can be removed. A matter of minutes. Once the bolt is out, drill out remains of cocking handle from both sides, if the bolt is to be reused,...

With the blocking screw in place does the Mk. V handle still work?

The idea is to add a second disconnect function to the trigger mechanism, independent of the tip of the tripping lever making contact with the bolt. Even if the trigger mechanism is sealed and not...

An RCMP approved open bolt design with an assigned FRT number is critical. Hopefully Claven2's will be accepted.
Haven't been able to find any homemade open bolt semi auto versions in the FRT to...

Generally speaking, assuming that the machine is set for the appropriate amperage, and wire speed, and gas flow are correct, it is a matter of practice, and more practice. I remember when I first...

The originals were welded using electric arc, oxygen/acetylene gas or electric resistance (spot) welding. Soft solder and rivets, too, on some, depending on the Mark, and/or period of manufacture. ...

"Now crank up the amps on your MIG welder and give her a good deep plug welding"....
Cost being no object TIG might well be the preferred system.
MIG equipment is somewhat less expensive. I don't...

Might as well ask for the FRT number for a homemade open bolt semi auto Mk. II Sten at the same time.

FWIW, the BD-3008 has its "selector" cut away, very much like the one shown in Claven2's photo. The BD selector is also free to move, but because of the cutout, this has no effect whatsoever on the...

Flanges could also be added to both sides of the tripping lever to prevent it from ever shifting off to the side.
