Interesting - thanks.

I had to laugh at his "My goodness, we need a sub machine gun" accent :-)

The models that came between the Sten and the Sterling were interesting !!!

Always thought the Sterling was a solid looking bit of kit....

I have to say that before the L85 arrived, the Sterling L2A3 was my favorite to use and carry... never used it "for real", but much easier to shoot and carry than the L1A1
