Stens were designed specifically to be made by any engineering shop with a vice and a hammer
They're such a simple gun. I had a go of one at a shooting range near Las Vegas, when I mentioned to the chap that my Great Aunt used to test them at the ordnance factory in Fazackerly during the war, he gave two extra mags for free
Part of the Roots Group, along with Humber. Dad had a Super Minx, about 1967? Later he had a Singer Vogue. I can't remember who made the Minx.
my uncle who was an engineer with a rather colourful past had a couple singer cars, one of which he drove to Flensburg none stop from Nottingham... back in the day to watch me compete in a shooting competition back in the day (1974 if I'm correct).... he use to develop stuff for rolls royce while building smart mines which where both magnetic and autominous and would drive towards the targets... all based on the sounds of an engine way before smart mines, wifi, RFID and shit like that...!
The 2007 black G650 Xcountry's were made thus, dunno about the Challenge and Moto models. 2008 on they were assembled in China, I am given to understand!

Hi Leadfarmer is the M1 deactivated or is it 22lr? Looking for 22? 
Ford made war planes. I’d hazard a guess that any manufacturer who was around during ww1 or 2 would have turned their hand to some kind of military production. JJH

Hi
No it’s all original semi auto .30 Carbine, it’s legal here
The Thompson is .45ACP but restricted to semi auto only, we’re not allowed full
You’re looking for an Erma Carbine replica? They are pretty cool
