Sterling SMG

The Sterling submachine gun is a British sub machine gun which was in service with the British Army from 1953 until 1988 when it was phased out with the introduction of the L85A1. It is still manufactured and used by India as the 'Sub Machine Gun 1A1' alongside the silenced 2A1 variant. The Sterling submachine gun is/was copied in Chile as the FAMAE PAF but has a retractable wire stock and lacks the barrel shroud.
