The main differences however include the number of components having been greatly reduced and its overall construction made even cruder. Here is another installment of WW2 Airsoft replicas as dipicted in the Call Of Duty World war 2 video game.Average retail price in Pounds/Dollars & Euros 160. Personal preference I guess.I've had a Mk2 for almost 15 years and love it.and would love to find a transferrable Mk3.just because I like how they look.but keeping in mind it was the British equivalent of a "last ditch" weapon. The DIY STEN Gun is a simplified 1:1 copy of the British STEN MKIII submachine gun. not an easy fix.you'll occasionally see Mk3's where military armours put a blob of weld on the front trunion to keep the barrel from spinningĪt least you have a quick change barrel option with a Mk2.and they are great hosts for a dedicated suppressor.Mk3's not so much.Įvery high wear part in a mk2 can be found in one of the cheapo Mk3 kits except the ejector. Mark 3's are tougher to find than Mark 2's.either transferrable or pre-mays.but they are also much more poorly constructed.Įvery original Mk3 I've ever seen the barrel would rotate freely in the trunions.they take a battering from the bolt and are held only by rivets and a touch of silver brazing.
