Pasting from my Reddit post. I highly recommend finding it on Reddit as I have a lot of images and videos conveniently linked… [WTS][CA] NorthEast NE Airsoft STEN Mk2 Gas Blowback SMG w/ 7 magazines, plus spare parts [**Photos and some videos. See more links below.**](https://imgur.com/a/GlTQMiI) [**Test firing, semi/auto/slow motion**](https://imgur.com/a/b8k0mgv) [**Indoor gameplay footage, with tracer unit & flashlight.**](https://youtu.be/uT5fNm0sXIw) ​ # $700 Shipped. Bought this near the beginning of 2023, played with it once and although it is super cool I just don't think I like STEN's enough to keep it. The externals are built like a tank and the gun looks incredibly good, but compared to the other replicas I own I found it did not spark the kind of joy I thought it would. I wouldn't recommend this gun to someone who has not owned GBB's before and worked on them. The system on this gun is quite simple, but with little aftermarket support you'll need to know how to trouble shoot in case something goes wrong. When it came to me, all of the loading arms were snapped off of the nozzles, so I had to track down fresh ones to buy which is difficult since these guns are out of production. I managed to pickup spare nozzles and even a brand new bolt assembly, so this gun comes with the old bolt as well and the fresh bolt installed. The loading arms snap off VERY EASILY, specifically when the magazines are loaded to FULL capacity and inserted into the gun... This means the BB's have NO SPACE to retreat into the mag, and instead put tons of pressure on the loading arm for the first shot/ during mag insertion. TLDR: DO NOT INSERT A FULLY LOADED MAG INTO THE GUN!!! The trick is: Load to capacity, then pop 1-3 bbs out of the magazine before use. Don't break these nozzles as they are very difficult to find. Before you contact me to purchase, I highly recommend speaking to other owners of this replica [On the "Heavy Recoil Club Discord"](https://discord.gg/Jw469r2V). They can tell you all about actually owning, fielding, and fixing these replicas versus a single useless 1-sentence review on some random airsoft store website. I'm not desperate to get rid of this. It has sat in a closet for months and I'd rather it do that for longer, than go to someone who is way in over their heads and will end up regretting their purchase. **What's included?** 1. Sten Mkii with T-stock. 2. 7x Magazines, which all hold gas. Will be drained before shipping. Mags marked on baseplate with a white paint pen. 3. STEN Magazine speed loader adapter, to easily fill mags with BBs. 4. 2x brand new nozzles (plus one installed). 5. 2x broken nozzles for parts. 6. Spare bucking, springs, and magazine valve striker plate. The old striker assembly has a tab snapped off, I replaced it with a brand new one when it broke. Still good to have on hand. 7. Spare, used bolt (Fresh bolt installed in gun already) note, one of the nozzle-retaining walls is missing from this bolt, basically a bit of plastic that stops the nozzle from sliding out 100% when shooting. 8. Front wooden grip assembly. Looks a little finicky, I didn't try to install it when I had it. 9. [3D printed RMR optic plate + flashlight rail](https://imgur.com/3FwrLqP). Note this listing does not come with the red dot, wooden Mk5 stock or flashlight, just including photos so you can see how it was setup when I was using it. 10. 3D printed supressor that fits a tracer inside. Supressor slides onto the gun, and you unscrew a grub screw just a tad so it protrudes out of the heat shield hole. The cover itself slips onto place using friction alone. Nothing special just made for my own use. 11. [Custom made chest rig](https://imgur.com/67bQtsY), using a STEN bandolier. I am 6'1" and 190lbs. There should be a good amount of adjustment all around on the shoulder and back straps. This was a fun little project where I added straps and buckles to the bandolier after cutting the shoulder straps off. Nothing bullet proof, but it works well. 12. Fully insured & tracked shipping CONUS. Shipment will require adult signature for drop off. **I see a sales price, but how about a trade???** 1. I will entertain trades but they are going to end up being unrealistically specific, I don't want to waste your time... 2. No AEG's or HPA'd AEG's of any kind. 3. GBB only or non blow back 4. Not even sure what I would be interested in to be honest... 5. Maybe real weird Russian optics? 6. SAIGA 12-k?
