![]() ![]() No doubt the combination of history select-fire capability, common 9mm cartridge and price combine to make the Sten an attractive choice. Although close to the bottom of the food chain when it comes to Title II firearms, from my observations the Sten is very well liked by those who possess them. I guess what make the Sten appealing to many is its simplicity as well as its rugged reliability. The Sten Manual that was first published in 1997, and now in its second printing, continues to be one of my best selling books. I base these assumptions of popularity on the prevalence of the Sten boards on the web, and sales of The Sten Owners Manual for Shooters and Collectors (available from Moose Lake Publishing). Although crudely constructed, awkward to fire and (arguably) aesthetically unappealing, the World War II British Sten series of 9mm submachine guns (or machine carbine in British parlance) have established quite a loyal following among US collectors and shooters. ![]()
