    that's Exceedingly rare & I for one. Have never seen one marked like that before! nice.

    I have about Five different Sterlings in my own Collection. One has interesting selector markings. Instead of: Safe, Semi, & Auto.
    it is marked: 0 - 1- 34 on the Trigger mech housing.

    I know where the US market Carbine serial Number.1 is for sale. But the 'Shop' that owns it at present. has ALL it's items priced at ridiculously high/ Greedy Offerings!
    For mainly the Tourist Market. However, as the unwary/ unknowlegable continue to pay the extortionate amounts asked. The 'Practice' will Undoubtably continue!...............
