    Haganah - TMT IV Sten markings

    I found some TMT IV marked Sten parts at a local gun show.





    There’s a small Star of David below the second T.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    Is it a star of Davis? Looks like a 5 pointed star to me?

    You’re right Peter. It’s a five pointed star.

    I found a picture of one that’s in better condition.

    Too many projects already and I think it would mean more to someone who is into the history of Israel.

    The welding on the butt looks the same.

    The barrel has the indexing notch and the trunnion has the pin, like the Mk5.

    The cocking handle is trying to hide inside the bolt spigot.
