Sterling Mk4 L2A3

[tankhunter]

And at a glance BEFORE reading the serial number. I could have told you it was NOT a British Issue Weapon. ALL L2A3 SMGs in Service, had a 'Y' Shaped plate welded in the 'U' section of the folding butt.

This MOD Plate was intended to prevent the Butt assembly from bending/ distorting in Usage. After recieving a blow to one side of it.
The plate was simply welded in, dressed to profile & painted with Suncorite 259.

I have an Extremely rare Fazackerly Manufactured Sterling. That came to Me without this MOD Plate fitted. it now has one correctly Fitted!....
