Produced in quantity during World War II, the STEN Gun was one of the signature weapons of the Commonwealth of Nations. While notably rough in appearance, the STEN was a simple machine that provided good firepower and could run in harsh conditions. Blade front and fixed peep rear sights, with "STEN MK II" and the serial number on the magazine well, "ENGLAND" stamped up the left side of the trigger housing, a "R A" (semi, full) selector switch and a tubular buttstock. A plug has been welded into the breech, and the barrel collar has been spot-welded to the tubular frame.

Fair overall. The barrel, collar and buttstock show a mixed brown patina, with about half of the blue remaining on the receiver and magazine well, scattered spotting and patches of rust, and mild handling marks. A pattern of round spots of wear is present on the right side of the stock and receiver, possibly from contact with bubble wrap. Mechanically very good.
