Sterling MK4 SMG Disasembly

[@SwampDogArmory]

I am enjoying the breakdowns of the subguns along with the explanations. Keep it up brother you rock.

[@BWEFirearms]

Glad you like them!

[@RJM1011]

GREAT to see thank you thumbs up and shared I love these it's a pity the UK stopped using them. :)

[@BWEFirearms]

I agree with you

[@andyevans8299]

Remember learning how to use these in the RAF 30 years ago. Nice for short range. Hardly any recoil. Cheap as chips. Look cool as well.

[@robotsonmars1989]

This was my weapon in the British Army in the 80s (RAMC) Good memories..

[@ProjectStrum]

Bolt forward when opening that up lol

[@Cornpops_Revenge]

I'm down in Fort Myers but I'm gonna come up and see you sometime soon... I've got a semi auto MG42 giving me some issues... Plus you're just a cool dude...

[@BWEFirearms]

Thanks. Just let me know when you are coming up.

[@jessicahartness8063]

does the bolt need to be locked back when taking rear cap off? I hate myself for not picking one of the Sterling "semi pistols" from S.O.G. 15years or so ago... they sold them for $239.00 I thought that was kinda high. lol!!

[@BWEFirearms]

No, I should have let the bolt go forward before removing the rear cap so there would have been less spring tension on the cap.

LOVED UR BREAK DOWN OF THE "STAR WARS BLASTER"!..😎👍

[@BWEFirearms]

Thank you.

[@BeltFedEd1]

I really enjoy your videos Richard. For the barrel removal on the Sterling, have you tried using a slightly snug wooden dowel rod into the chamber end to control the barrels rotation?

[@BWEFirearms]

That would be a good way to do it.

[@DireAvenger001]

What do you think of the Finish KP44 and PPS 43 design?

[@BWEFirearms]

I am not a huge fan of them as they are a crude sheet metal subgun and the rate of fire is too high in my opinion. I have parts kits for them that I will probably never build as they are just not a fun or comfortable subgun to shoot.

[@BigSlimmyD]

You any where near Maryland

[@thanakislupusthesaltywolve7208]

I want one, how much do thay go for

[@BWEFirearms]

I think about twenty grand.

[@dennisgarrett2044]

how do you get a stainless steel sten tube uncut or 80 percent mill? and how do you get a barrel?

[@BWEFirearms]

Online metals should have stainless steel tube the correct diameter. I don't know if anyone makes an 80% Sterling receivers. I just get the tube and cut my own. I don't know of anyone who makes Sterling barrels.

[@dennisgarrett2044]

@@BWEFirearms Have a funny story! I tried like 25 years ago to build a antique sten and had no tools. Purchased a kit for 50 bucks! Found back in windows 95 days a place that sells sten tube receivers brought one but back then they charge you to turn the inside diameter of tube like a extra hundred bucks! so brought the thing couldnt fit the parts together! purchased a bycycle reaming tool! Took a drill reamed the tube out with oil and reamer. went to weld it together and tube shrunk! had to take it apart again and ream it again! cause I read that over in europe duriing world war two people got the kits cut down metal fence posts and used them as receiver tubes! and didnt care if it every worked just wanted a sten gun prop around! Then lost it in storage shed with all my stuff! Then started selling the kits with out barrels in the future! and now have a couple of places that sell the tubes but you have to order online and send money order in a week or they send your money back. So what happened to sten it just rusted like a care inside and out side in one years cause it wasnt stainless steel!

[@aaoutdoors9088]

Love it!!!

[@BWEFirearms]

I do too, so does my wife.

[@nothenkemprai628]

I. Like. It

[@davidravenscroft9235]

Great Weapon For Calling Last Orders At Your Local!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@kez0o9]

Has anybody put the sterling mag well on the sten,?

[@BWEFirearms]

Yes, but you have to modify the Sten bolt to work with Sterling magazines.

[@sojolmolla6180]

Master pieces

[@game.over.]

That's bad ass though 😍

[@BWEFirearms]

Yes it is.

[@MrRmh3481]

Good Show Richard. Do you know if the British Military still uses these?

[@BWEFirearms]

The British military no longer uses the Sterling.

[@535tony]

Complicated Sten. Would rather get a folding stock for my Sten.

[@TheArmourersBench]

To be fair the Sterling is a Rolls Royce compared to the Sten. Smoother and much more ergonomic.

[@kez0o9]

@@TheArmourersBench I read a really good book on the sterling recently,lol

[@TheArmourersBench]

@@kez0o9 was it mine? Haha

[@kez0o9]

[@BWEFirearms]

I have to agree.

[@gatlingbert]

The Sterling has a good reputation for reliability but for maintenance I think the uzi is better

[@BWEFirearms]

I have to agree.

[@stevemarriott7984]

For normal daily cleaning in the field it was never practise to remove the barrel, ejector, trigger guard etc. This weapon was really simple to maintain and use.

[@DLDafterDark]

Firsties!!!

[@BWEFirearms]

Congratulations.

[@tom3699]

Nice video Richard thanks. I can break down my UZI with my eyes closed and put it back together not that baby.

[@BWEFirearms]

Glad to help

[@tenlittleindians]

Kind of complicated compared to it's precessor.

[@BWEFirearms]

Just the trigger pack.

"Болт" у них это затвор, я так понал. У русских это деталь резьбового соединеия, а также салонное наименование мужского полового органа. "Салонное" потому, что бывает хуже.

So you are not that expert of Gun's, anyway enjoyed watching your confuse video..😂😂😂
