I'll keep you guys updated! Yep, CT is a no select fire state(hopefully I'll be moving to FL within a year or 2). I bought the sten from Ruben at dealernfa.com, an I found out from him the one I chose was already converted to FA and safe only, so that was a pleasant surprise! As soon as I move I'll convert it back to select fire though. I'm excited as hell though! I'm 110% happy with my decision, I don't think I would even do a MAC down the road. I wish there were some more decent videos on YouTube of the sten to keep me occupied until I get it. Really only collegeboy, and hickock have good videos....so I'll just keep watching theirs 
I'll make another much better one for you in a couple weeks. mike |

I'd go with either a Powder SPrings MAC10 45 ACP or a MAC/RPB Mac 10 9mm. The M11/9's are fine, but the MAC and RPB overstamps are made of heavier metal that will last. LAGE makes uppers and upgraded stocks for the M11/9 AND the MAC10 models.
If you are seriously looking for a new in the Box MAC10 in 9mm or 45, LMK and for a small finders fee I can steer you to a legitmate dealer with some at killer prices. Good luck either way. You cant go wrong with a INGRAM or a STEN built on a DLO tube. I would go with a Mark V sten or the STENLING rather than a Mk2. Good Hunting either way!

But look at the post I made above yours^^ 
I prefer the MK II Sten over the MKV or even a Sterling(for some reason I really dont like the sterlings). I like the look and history of the MKII over everything else. |

Oh a big DUHH on my part - sorry.
I just noticed you are in CT so you can only have Full Auto only. Good luck on your sten! The waiting is the hardest part - probably want to look into a suppressor and threaded barrel so you can shoot it without getting the villagers nervous! Glad you got your feet wet!

Yep FA only here in CT. Its funny the Sten I bought from Ruben, has already been converted to FA only anyways(I didn't even know that when I bought it) he told me it was already converted so that was a nice surprise! But my family and I are actually in the beginning stages of moving down to FL, so in time it will be converted back to Select Fire. And yep the plan will be to get a can for this as well. But for a while I want to shoot it unsuppressed. I figure if I get the can now also, Ill never shoot it without it. |

Well as in most cases, I took the advice of the ar15.com and got both.
I ended up with an RPB Mac10/9 also. This is both of them waiting at the dealer.
