The Sten was introduced in June, 1941. It was designed by Vernon Sheppherd and Harold John Turpin and developed at Enfield, the British government arsenal. Total production of the Sten in various marks, from mid 1941 to late 1945, was 3,750,000. The Sten Submachine Gun was the first example of a new breed of cheap and simple full-auto infantry weapons that came to be adopted by many of the world's armies. :uzi:
