Easy enough to turn from a piece of heavy walled mild steel tubing. A solid chunk would also be a possibility, but more work.
The cut at the rear can be made with a mill or hacksaw and files.
Have a friend with a lathe?

Hello philb ..

I understand from private correspondence (which you were copied on), that this is an integral part of the strength of the body of the sten gun.

So, having this part randomly produced by a third party may be a highly risky adventure and perhaps unsafe to use in a live fire setting..

Please reconsider doing this without professional guidance from a gunsmith qualified to work on the Sten Gun ....

Regards,
Doug
