STEN Mk II (Chinese Contract) + B. & J. Sippel Ltd Bayonet

STEN Mk II Long Branch 1945.  Bolt retracts, magazine and stocks (2 styles)  are removable.  Comes with original strap and Sten Bayonet.  The Bayonet marked B. & J.S. L. on leaf spring and also on body of muzzle ring.  Very few were issued and the market price is around 600.  Can send you link for more detail about it.

The direct translation for the 3 lines of the Chinese Characters : STEN ; Hand Carry Machine Gun; Canada Made.  All the characters are in Traditional Chinese which is official in the 40's and also remain the same until now for the Taiwan Government.   Checked with an expert in Taiwan it is anachronistic to see Simplified Chinese appears.  

This gun is exported (military aid?) to Chinese National Party or KMT again for the civil war against CCP after WW2 until 1949.

I can do $3800 shipped if anyone also take the Sterling L2A3 as parcel
