Starting a STEN Mk V SBR in the US

[17thairborne]

Vincent,

Yes...getting close from a construction stand point, but a long way off waiting for the ATF forms.

On another note...found this cool British pamphlet detailing the operation of the MK I and II.

Thanks fort that useful info 17th and Tiriaq. I know a person here who partially stripped a deac/dewat Mk2 to make an equally deac/dewat Mk5 and I have to confess, made a superb job of it.

But didn't it bring on the pains.................? His local Police took it upon themselves to intrerpret this as trying to reconfigure it back to something shootable. Anyway, a simple school lesson type very simple explanation over a cup of tea, explaining that NOTHING of the dewat/deact work had been tampered with or otherwise messed with, followed by an hour on the range with the real McCoy convinced them. Naturally, a week later, their boss and the head of the firearms licensing office had to be convinced as well followed by a jolly on the range with a Sten, Uzi (or was it a MAC?) and a Sterling..................

I sometimes wonder when they'll come a knockin' at my place. It's a struggle between posting what is fully legal and worrying about mis-interpretation.
