Holly Crap a STEN AEG
 

Was just checking out WGC for new products and there is a WWII STEN MKII SMG... even bigger surprise, It's an AEG.

OLD news, mate - that's been around for quite a while. There are a few Sten AEG's out there. IIRC someone made a Sten AEG out of PVC pipe and a LPEG Gearbox.

Word on Arnies is that AGM will release a Sten AEG as well.

I'd prefer a Lee Enfield myself.

It COMES with a LIPO?

What are they thinking!?:rolleyes:

I actually looked through ASC before posting too... Only thing I found was that custom build with the pvc pipe (impressive but not gameable)
It's new news to me and left me shocked and excited.

Does this Sten AEG accept MP40 mags? Because the real Sten did.

I read that AGM bit on Arnie's as well, and its got me pretty excited. Found a new CQB weapon. Will those mags fit in MP5 mag pouches?

It's not technically old new, owing to the fact that this is the first time a company has actually made a Sten AEG publicly accessible. The fact that a small handful people have done home-made Stens doesn't detract from this release.

It's only a 7.4v. Why do people always think lipos are "cRaZy!!" ?

a few companies made the Sten before they folded up tent, companies like the Garage gun works (Smokeys), Tanaka. First factory, Carom did make a kit so does Killer studio but a very limited run.

I see the sarcastic smiley wasn't enough...

how much for the sten

Ofcourse YOU would want one :P.

Oui oui!!
lol

PS.
If someone knows who will bring one in let me know please. If not I will have to search for myself... and that's work. :)

Tank

I have one custom ordered now, the Viva Sten. It does take the MP40 mags, I will do up a proper reveiw when it arrives.

Apparently (as the runour mill goes) AGM are already in the process of cloning the Viva (all steel) Sten with a plastic one.

Yorkie.

tbh I dont trust VIVA arms and their quality is flinky, the ZF41 I had from VIVA has rust on one of the part

There's a nicely balanced review here.

Airsoft International already did a reveiw and it came up short,like 2 outa 5 stars short! It's a good read and Viva has already said the ver.2 will have most of the issues fixed.Take it as you will? The read is worth it,Volume 5 issue 2 just thought I'd toss that in ;)

honestly,never heard such a manufacturer like viva before..and read some info about this gun.i ll definately pass on buyingit...
hope other brands like JG and dboy can release a more practical,affordable and upgradable replica.

yeah,i ve read that article..feel kinder disappointed about it..
btw,i suppose that few people read AI in canada's airsoft community..
its really a good magazine,watever..

AGM Sten MK II AEG
 

AGM Sten MK II AEG is now available.
Is listed on Gunner Airsoft as a "Full Steel and Complete copy of VIVA Sten"

Price: $132 USD

Another reason for the Sten being made was for dropping to particen and resistance units. With the ready available ammunition and mp40/38 mags fitting the Sten it was the perfect weapon for them. By the way another name for the Sten was "A Plumbers Nightmare" and the safety was next to none. They said if you cocked a fully loaded Sten then tossed it into a room it would start shooting.
