On The Range: Sterling Mk.4 / L2A3 SMG Blocked At Semiauto

10m
Following an earlier vid on the Sterling's mechanics, I had the fine fellows of M426 in Wangen an der Aare block my Sterling Mk.4 / L2A3 SMG at semiauto, so that it can actually be fired on a range any time (not permitted if it's still a full auto, even if only firing semiauto). This is the one plus point of the new Swiss law.
So we took it out to 25m to see how it did!

We do a deep dive into the trigger mechanism, fire selector and burst fire mechanism of the FAMAS F1 using period docs and Chap's arts 'n' crafts models. The mechanisms illustrate perfectly the ingenious solutions that designers had to come up with for first generation bullpups.

Thanks to the guys at M426 in Wangen an der Aare, here's a Silenced STEN Mk.II(S) that's not quite right. We take a look and show how to tell a fake.

Mike takes his open bolt Sterling Mk.4 in 9mm Para out to 100m and 200m to see what it's capable of at its sighted ranges, which are pretty much "long range" for an open-bolt SMG. The results are interesting though!
