Download or read book A History of the Small Arms Made by the Sterling Armament Company written by Peter Laidler and published by Pen and Sword Military. This book was released on 2020-07-30 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An in-depth history of the small arms made by the Sterling Company of Dagenham, Essex, England, from 1940 until the company closed in 1989. The Lanchester and the Patchett Machine Carbines were both developed at Sterling Engineering Co Ltd during World War II. With the appearance of the earliest Patchett prototypes the military began testing them in ever more rigorous trials, wherein the Patchett kept proving its merits. This led to limited UK adoption of the MkII Patchett as the L2A1 in 1953, and the “first Sterling,” the MkII, as the L2A2 in 1955. Then came Sterling’s “Crown Jewel,” the superb Mk4, adopted as the general-issue UK “Gun, Sub-Machine, L2A3” in September, 1955. Manufactured briefly but intensively by ROF Fazakerley (1955–1959) and by Sterling for over 30 years, nearly 4,000,000 were made. Unlike wraparound bolt designs like the UZI, the Sterling was capable of being truly silenced with standard 9mm ball ammunition (as opposed to being merely “suppressed”). The excellent silenced Sterling-Patchett Mk5, adopted as the UK L34A1 in 1967, is the only Sterling remaining in British Service. All prototypes, military Marks, commercial and licensed production models of the Sterling are described, including the Canadian C1 SMG and the Indian 1A Carbine. Contains notes on manufacturing methods and procedures as used at Sterling, ROF Fazakerley, Canadian Arsenals Limited and the Indian Small Arms Factory, Kanpur (Cawnpore), plus extensive notes on inter-model interchangeability, serial number ranges, quantities produced, client-country purchases of the various Sterling Marks, and accessories. Praise for A History of the Small Arms made by the Sterling Armament Company “If you have an interest in small arms then this is a book that belongs in your library or book shelf. The book does a great job of providing the reader with the story of the weapons that evolved into the Sterling sub-machine gun and the changes in design that took place over that history. The result was a weapon that served in many fields of conflict and performed admirably.” —Armorama

Download or read book Anti money Laundering and Counter terrorism Financing Across the Globe written by Julie Walters and published by . This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most developed countries across the globe have enacted to prescribe acts of money laundering and financing of terrorism, and to enable the proceeeds of crime to be recovered from offenders. Despite the normative approach taken in the FATF-GAFI recommendations, the specific legislative and procedural responses taken by individual countries have differed in many respects. Law enforcement and prosecutorial agencies need to understand the differences that exist in criminal law relating to money laundering between different countries when investigating and prosecuting illegal conduct, as conduct of this nature often entails cross-border activity requiring mutual assistance between agencies and extradition of suspects across jurisdictional borders. The countries included were the European Union (the United Kingdom, France, Germany and Belguim), Asia (the Republic of China (Taiwan), Hong Kong and Singapore), the United States and Australia.
