I imported a bunch of Sterling L2A3 's back in the day and they are KR 107xxx series and KR108xxx series
They were in exc condition Sterling wouldn't tell me much , even after buying lots of spares for them.
I think they were still angry over the Long Branch Sterling's.! There was a couple of Canadian Guns mixed in with the Sterling's. All of the numbers were real close together

That's interesting and Peter L addressed that once saying it was because of the huge workshops over in CFE doing work and returning weapons by numbers instead of manufacture. Still, with all the Submachine Guns C1 I saw, I not once came to contact with a Sterling. Nor did I see any FNs except C1s and C1A1s.
