My on-line claim status now says Approved: 03/26/2026 I spoke with Senator Moreno's Chief of Staff Monday, and with Congressman Latta leading the fight it looks like I'll get paid. Still nothing on the UZI, I'll just consider it gone at this point. Now to wait and see how long it takes to get that check from the USPS.

Absolute flawed boomer logic. It’s 2026 the internet exists the public knows you can own a mg, suppressors are everywhere the NFA process is well known. This man has every right to go to the news and complain about his troubles. A crime occurred and no one is helping him. News will put pressure on the atf cops usps etc.

The consumer affairs manager called me back today and said she has nothing to tell me. She seems honestly sincere in wanting to help me. The media relations contact for the reporter had nothing to say either. I had a zoom interview with channel 4 today, and they seemed to be interested in making this the PR nightmare it deserves to be.

Interesting. I once had a STG 44 for sale, someone committed to buy it, then Hank contacted me wanting to purchase. I had to tell him it was sold, then the original guy backed out. I called Hank back but he had already found another gun, I’m assuming it was this one. I eventually sold mine as well, but this was a long time ago.

I will try to make a batch of the 50 round magazines and see how it goes in quantity. They are about as big as my machine will allow. Will let you know later this week. Another thing that I want to mention is that I redesigned the McFadden Lightnin' Loader Adapter this weekend. It works much better now. I was even able to fully loaded the 50 round magazine with it. Today, I sent out the updated loader adapters to everyone who had ordered one in the past. So if anyone who had ordered one doesn't receive it by next week, I probably missed you somehow. Please email me.....

There is nothing "under the radar" about NFA items in 2026. If anything, an enraged Democrat will make enough noise that results in this transferable MG being found and put back into circulation. That's a win for NFA.

One of my customers got a hold of Channel 4 News in Detroit, and they are going to do a story on the stolen UZI. The reporter made contact with their Postal Service Media contact and the person in charge of customer relations in the Detroit office called me this morning. The person I spoke to had no idea a machine gun went missing, but she will follow up with me on Monday when everyone gets back to work. I expect she'll hit a brick wall, but in the least this is riffling some feathers...

Have the seller Form 4 the MG directly to your dealer in Florida. Then have your dealer provide the shipping label. Have your dealer (or you) provide insurance from a 3rd party (like collect insure). good luck.

I want to thank all of you for your input. It was helpful knowledge for speaking with the ATF. ATF realizes now that the guns are stolen so they have contacted the current owners. No matter what, someone is losing money or guns. I feel foolish but the ATF said that James befriended older collectors. I felt like I was listening and being of help to a young man that was facing life without parents. Unfortunately I am one of those foolish old men. Ultimately life goes on. I was looking at some old posts and one struck me as timely. It was a thread about a scammer and I wrote: I thought the same on a trade with an AUG for a Nighhawk and after so many days i thought very dark ideas about the trade when the item did not show. It came down to a sickness with someone he cares about. LIFE happened and I am used to being scammed so my mind went to a bad place. Maybe something happened to him and a family member. dig deep and see if you can get ahold of him. I hope, for your sake, it is jusy a BLIP in a good working relationship. Unfortunately this was a year ago and it was James Sietsma. If I had followed my head I would not be out a couple of guns today. It comes down to, I want to trust Sturm members. Be well, Chappy

Here’s a preliminary video of what NavGunner is planning to bring to the market. Integral Sten can, ported barrel and reduced weight bolt (trifecta). If you have any questions, please reach out to @Navgunner. Also, he got a plethora of other parts. He’s helping to keep MG’s alive and running. I’ll have some more videos in the next week or two. Side Note: I’m using @subgun24 Sten’s optic mount and it’s good to go.

Yet 80+% of 02/07's have nothing more than a mailbox and their only tool is a box cutter to open the boxes of the samples they've built in the mail? LOL

You guys are nuts if you don't demand a refund like yesterday on uppers and barrels. Over 2 years now of me reading Russ responses of 2 weeks, next month blah blah blah.

If this doesn’t show what a first class operation Todd is running I don’t know what could. He keeps improving his designs and sends them to past customers voluntarily on his own dime even without being asked. Who else does that!?

I paid for 3 uppers. After delay, was promised 6 uppers. Was promised a refund last year. Was sent tracking info - but they never actually shipped the refund. Also ghosted after following up numerous times… -M

This HK G41 was originally converted by TSC on factory HK93 then reconfigured by HEAT Inc. into a G41C short-barreled rifle chambered in 5.56×45mm NATO, variant of the Heckler & Koch G41 platform. It features a roller-delayed blowback action consistent with the HK design lineage. The rifle incorporates the G41’s distinctive magazine interface compatible with STANAG magazines with a last round bolt hold open feature absent from most HK's of the time and includes the Hensoldt ” ZF G41 “ scope specific to the G41 rifles, KAC MP5 RAS and HK rail panels with HK forward grip. The configuration reflects the G41’s late-generation development within the HK family, combining elements of the HK33 with NATO-standard components. The TSC marking indicates conversion by TSC Machine, known for precision HK-pattern builds. The G41C design remains faithful to the original HK engineering approach, providing a more compact, military-style rifle layout with a reduced overall length. The rifle’s rarity stems from limited production and importation of G41-based configurations. Don’t let this rare HK get away from you or your collection!

I currently see no downside to this. Like JMPinTN said, make them do their job. A crime occurred. The responsible agency needs to investigate it. You insured the firearm for fair market value and they lost it. You have a valid claim and they didn't want to pay it. It's just maddening that no one wants to do the right thing. Besides, the more spotlight on it the better chance it gets recovered. Two things can happen. It will be looked for and found through a proper investigation, or it will disappear forever because the people responsible won't want to get caught with it.

It was shipped Registered mail. It was signed for, there are cameras. It didn't just disappear, they know what happened, it was stolen. They just aren't admitting it.

Below are two short videos (combined into one) of NavGunner’s Integral Sten Suppressor, paired with a lightened bolt and ported barrel (Trifecta). My personal opinion, a lightened bolt is essential for a ported integral Sten setup. Especially considering, the original MKII(S) models also utilized lightened bolts (IMO, runaways could be an issue, if you use a heavy bolt). This footage is from some initial testing, so it’s limited (most testing was done off camera). For reference, I was using 115gr ammunition in both of the vids, and the S&B loads run noticeably hot. I’ll be posting additional videos within the next week or two.

I'm just waiting for Thumpy to chime in on how braces are "common usage" and how this is all somehow the "boomers fault" because they didn't rise up and defend the 2A back in the 60s. It doesn't take a crystal ball to tell the future, only a bit of wisdom and intelligence. Something the younger people lack in large measure.

Makes me which I hadn't sole mine, Austin is really stepping up for the CIII subgun owners.

Hi Juno: I see you are new to this board and maybe the world of HK, too. It might help if you were a little more descriptive with your request for OEM ambi pack. A HK trigger group consists of 3 items. A grip frame, a trigger pack and a selector set. There are about six ambi packs, a S-F, Three position ones: 0-1-2, 0-1-3. and 0-1-F (commonly called Navy) and four position ones: 0-1-2-F and 0-1-3-F These trigger packs can be set up for 9mm, 5.56 ,7.62, 40S&W, 10mm, and .357Sig. Depending on the caliber the packs use different ejectors. So, just saying "ambi pack" covers a lot of ground. Hope this helps Chuck -

I have an H&K four position trigger frame only if interested https://www.gunbroker.com/Item/1158833493

Looking for a Delft scope for the Dutch AR10 Sudanese model thanks

These are the kits that converts your NAVGUNNER suppressor (MK2 S / 76FE / 76A) for use with other SMGs --> S&W76 (U-prefix or Toolroom), MK760, or STEN MKII. KITS INCLUDE: (1) 5.25"ported barrel - We cut down new production barrels and add ports just forward of the chamber to slow standard velocity 124g ammunition to subsonic. This keeps the firearm running reliably but makes for quiet shooting. Please note that STEN barrels are machined with an indexing notch for compatibility with SMGs that require this feature. (1) Silencer to SMG adapter * For those customers who are purchasing for their STEN, we highly recommend also purchasing one of our Speed Bolts (sold separately) These reduced mass bolts significantly improve reliability when shooting ported barreled suppressors. To Purchase please visit our website at https://navgunner.com/

Just got ours installed, Todd was a great help with our questions. It runs flawless! Might have to buy a few more kits for the other uzi's now, thanks alot!

Navgunner, Good question! The polymer forend is 3D printed, and extensively tested. I would not have gone that route if it did not meet my quality and durability standards for the part design and application. I would love to have built an injection mold for it from the outset, but we could not justify the tooling cost until we can prove out the product as being viable as more than just a limited edition production run. If it does well, I do want to get an injection mold made for that part. Sven Manticore Arms

Hey gents, looking to sell this really nice Lancaster built on a Sten/Wilson tube. Gun runs great. Comes as seen with original British sling, five magazines. There is a small crack at the bottom of the stock that has been repaired, but it's holding up nicely. Gun works flawlessly. 18,000 plus shipping. In my inventory on a Form 3 ready for efile.

The serial numbers in the photos are different. Looks like two separate trigger packs

Been there, tried that. No response from the AG's office in a very detailed letter about the legality of the requirement and why it needed to be stricken, and that was Brad Schimel at the time. I will say that Joshy's mom, Peg Goldschlager as we called her allowed them to go through without a letter back in the day. Everyone needs a letter with every MG, no exceptions, and since everything is a pistol caliber they don't exclude any calibers. Been this way for several years already.

The more light shined on the situation the better. Force them to do their job instead of sweeping it under the rug and acting like it didn’t happen.

Looking to find early Armalite or Colt documents for the AR-10 or AR-15 like the examples I have attached. Manuals, brochures, pamphlets, sales materials, etc., anything from the 1950's to mid 1960's. Original factory documents, photos, or other interesting material is also appreciated. Interested in AR-7, AR-17, AR-18 materials as well. Thanks!

We have a used semi Delta/ US ordnance M60 available. Gun comes in factory box with all the accessories, manual, etc. that were included when new. Includes a bag of links and if you need more, or linked ammo we have that available as well. These are pretty uncommon, tend to stay in collections forever, and could be the centerpiece of most collections. High end guns like a PE57, etc. considered for trade or transferable MG's. We could use another sten, etc. Erma EMP parts and any other odd stuff.

Have to go in person to reclaim your property. Nothing can be done over the phone. Show up in person with a copy of the tax stamp or sot or the letter they sent you to give to them for their file. They will want a copy of your ID (there going to run your information to make sure you do not have any wants or are otherwise unable to possess the firearm if you are dealing directly with a SA at the field office). They will check the evidence cage and confirm its there and have you sign a doj/atf form that says you received the property and it will be witnessed by another individual from their office. If the item is located in a different atf evidence locker they will direct you to that different location to pick it up.

StrangeRanger beat me to it. That is the go to article on the subject. Your choices are, fix your magazines or buy a large pile and sort through them until you find a sufficient number that work properly. They aren't as cheap and plentiful as they once we're but they're still out there. I guess we take for granted the ability to purchase quantities of newer magazines that work properly and don't need tuning. Even US M3 Grease Gun magazines are pretty reliable even though they were made in massive quantities during WWII. The British however were not able to put the same quality standards into their production of the Sten and it's magazines. They're still fantastic guns when they run well. I've shot a few that ran well and they were very enjoyable.

If you are a shooter and enjoy your M-50 Reising it is good to have a spare firing pin. Some have light surface rust but have been cleaned and are functional. Easily installed. $40 each They can be mailed for $5.00

I wonder how long it might be before STEN gun prices catch up with other sub gum prices. Most other sub guns demand a price in excess of $20k but STEN prices bounce around $10k to $12k. The latest I've seen on MP40's prices run between $25k to $45K. I'm sure before long we'll see STEN's hit $20k or more, the way world conditions seem to be headed.

I love me some RTG Parts but their posting habits over the last year has flooded the sub forums with single item posts and take often half the visible posts on a page. short of blocking them which I don’t want to do, is there anyway to limit how much impact they have? One new production Microtech knife per post and dozens of them has detracted from what makes Sturm well, Sturm.

The market for the flips is pretty volatile. The first couple of standard MP5's sold in the $80K range. The market cooled off quickly but there's still quite a bit of value in them. I know someone who has a SD and was recently offered $60K cash by a well known C3 dealer. So, I'd guess that a factory SD would potentially bring $70-$80K or more.

I personally believe the flood gates have been opened. I don’t think banning them is going to stop people from buying selling using etc there is just to many of these already floating around. these companies making them are making and selling thousands of them. Things like these used to really only be real gun guys in the know with them… now it seems like everyone knows and owns frt’s…. A buddy of mine down in Texas was at a range shooting yesterday he said there was at least 5-6 people letting FRT’s rip while he was there. I know many of the older folks here keep saying “ well some day they will get banned” and my thinking is if that’s the attitude then some day our transferrables will be banned as well… I believe the more of these trigger out the better.
