Sten build

[Brit plumber]

Why doesnt someone take a Mk3 kit and make a Mk1? Anyone with a lathe can make the extra bits in a few hours.

The BATFE wants fake suppressors to be solid (no airspace inside). They classify hollow ones as suppressors. So, even an aluminum one is going to be heavy.

You could make a longer barrel shroud that would cover more of the barrel. Stenparts has the nuts. Sten MK II barrel nut | StenParts.com

If you don’t want to SBR it, you could build it as a pistol. A repro pistol grip is going to be a lot less expensive than a 16” barrel and fake suppressor.
