Deactivated WWII British Sten MK3

This is a WWII Sten MK3 Submachine Gun with its original wartime finish. The Sten MK3 was first introduced in 1942 as a simpler version of the MK2, with emphasis being quicker and cheaper to produce in large numbers. The magazine housing on this example is marked with the initials "LB" Lines Brothers who were subcontracted to make various parts for the Sten. The serial numbers both start with the letter B dating this Sten to 1943 as the UK geared up for D-Day. During WWII German captured MK3s were designated as the MP.750(e).

Deactivated to current specifications with moving cocking lever/bolt and trigger that return under spring tension.
