Sten Collector, need a bayonet for that EX1?

[No4Mk1(T)]

My most recent acquisition a nice Webley Mark VI made in 1915. I actually started (paid for) the deal on this one last year but it took the seller and I a while to finalize the deal.



And for fun a family photo. What is it with Enfield revolver Lanyard Rings? Anybody have a few spares laying around they don’t need? How about an unaltered front sight for a No.2Mk.1?

Here are a composite shot of August and September's acquisitions (to date):

From top to bottom:
Yugo M59
1943 Dispersal MkIII*
1934 Ishapore MkIII
1942 Lanchester Mk1
1961 POF No.4Mk2

Also a 1920 P1907 RFI bayonet, two 50 round Lanchester mags and a 1961 POF No.9 bayonet.

Not shown is a Faz Sten MkII kit which is dedicated to another semi-sten build in progress.

Nope, I managed to get one at the same auction I got the gun at. I have seen Cdn issued ones around, and am not certain the one I have is Cdn (serial number stamped on bayonet is not right....no 0B in front of the 4 digit number).

The bayonet is shown on the rifle in the second photo, although the lighting does not make it stand out.
