    Intresting, I don't see how this could even have been taken seriously. The blurb states it a FAL mag but its defo a L4 mag. My main concern would be firing a 7.62/308 round with that breech block, it would have to be really heavy to be safe, and that must have made the recoil terrible and inaccurate. This must have been more a case of someone proving they could make a 7.62 gun from a Sterling rather than a true experimental Rifle.
