Oddly they had the worst torch cut Sten I've ever seen hung on a hook behind the counter and they wouldn't bring it down, sell it or even let you touch it. Up a wide squeaky wooden staircase and at the back of the second floor were bins of surplus that seemed to get added to weekly.

About three doors down was 'Nicks' who had bundles of NOS '37 pattern web, but only ones side of those L-straps.
