    I was hoping to see something like that when I saw the photo of the machine gun in the background of the show stand, regarding the mk2 would you really want to put a scope on such a classic and iconic rifle, it'll be like putting a rear racing type wing on a Jag E type.

    I do hope they come up with the previously mentioned (by me) shed tuners inspired break barrel springer we've all been lusting after for far to many years, it would be nice to be able to put this one to bed and too show the other British companies who are not producing a decent one (a pop at BSA and AA) and if they can produce one entirely (or as close as can be) from British manufactured parts then even better.

    Far too many rifles to list now, all mainly British but the odd pesky foreigner has snuck in

    Anyone here know where they are getting the barrels made?

    It would be good to know of a source of UK made, quality barrels again.

    Don't think it's confirmed yet, they mentioned either Harper or Trim making barrels for them in the last video.

    Sterling Arms Update

    Hi All,

    Sterling Arms update



    As you know the guns displayed at the British shooting show were prototypes. We thank you all for the honest feedback given on the rifles..


    It has given us a great insight to see what potential customers want in a rifle!


    Since then we have looked at and amended the designs.


    In particular the design for the H-18.


    Changes from the prototype so far are trigger, trigger adjustment, stock around the trigger area, Breech block styling, silencer and cocking bolt.


    So only small changes really but nothing that changes the original concept of short, light and accurate and already beautiful rifle.

    More information will be available on Wednesday.


    But just so you guys know, the price hasn’t changed 👌



    Cheers Adam

    I doubt it would be Graham Trim, he might be a designer, but I doubt he has access to that kind of manufacturing ability.

    Hi Adam

    What is your connection to Sterling?
    A man can always use more alcohol, tobacco and firearms.
