Good research book December 21, 2007

If you do any gunsmithing, this book offers usable information that may be applied to many simple projects. Actually building the gun is out of the question because it is against the law to build, but still a good read.

This book is by far the best of its kind.
Of course you will need a lathe and milling machine to make this firearm... it would be pure fantasy to expect to build a reliable submachine gun without them.
This book is metric which is great for those of us in rational countries which adopted it long ago, for those who aren't... 1 inch equals 2.54 cm - it's not that hard guys. I've never understood why the U.S., which was the first country in the world to adopt a metric currency (common sense right?) would drag its feet so badly when it comes to adopting metric measurement! Perhaps it would be a different story it they had thought of it first ;)
This gun is built around the Sten magazine, magazine manufacture is not covered in this book, but Bill Holmes book "Submachine gun" has a good section on how to manufacture a Sten magazine if they are not available; so the two work very well together. Regarding the lack of a section on the magazines... no book of this type is ever going to hand you everything on a silver platter, for example it doesn't cover how to deep hole drill a barrel or button or cut rifle a barrel, but that sort of specialist knowledge needed to create a firearm can be found elsewhere.
Also a complete set of exceptional Sten gun blueprints including the magazine can be found in the book "Submachine gun designers handbook" So if you're serious I'd highly recommend it also.
sub machine gun July 20, 2007
very informative,how ever I don't believe that a person with limited machinist skills would ever be able to construct one one of these.The metric system used sucks.
a refrenece book June 2, 2007
I bout this book for a refrenece guide,so I would understand how fullauto weapons worked....
 more complex than it needs to be February 12, 2007
he has great ideas for mass underground production. other than that there are lots of usefull ideas, but better guns can be made with less work.
