    Sterling Mk4 L2A3

    Treated myself to one of the above yesterday at the War & Peace Show. Here's a couple of quick cameraphone pictures:

    I had a slow methodical delve through the dealer's crate of Sterlings and decided this was the nicest. I assume it's a plain vanilla commercial Mk4 supplied to who know's where back in the day, but is it dateable from the serial number? If the answer is 'consult The Guns of Dagenham' I don't have a copy and aren't likely to at current secondhand prices, but I may try putting in an inter-library loan request with my local library.

    Cheers,
    Mark
