Rifles that use STEN mags?

[Third_Rail]

What rifles are out there (any action but FA) that use STEN mags? I've searched both here and Google, without figuring anything out.

What would you use this kind of a rifle as, a home-defense carbine, plinker or what?
MPA's Ingram line of handguns use STEN magazines (I believe).
You can convert any 9mm Ingram firearm to use STEN magazines, then buy barrel extensions, shrouds or whatever and have a pretty nifty carbine.

Certain models of Olympic arms AR15 chambered in 9mm use the 32rd
Sten Mags.

Hm, I thought the OlyArms models used modified STEN mags?

I have an Oly Arms 9mm upper. The factory mags are a modified Sten mags (they weld a mag block on). However, you can also buy a mag block that stays in the rifle mag well and then you can use unmodified Sten mags (actually most of my Sten mags needed to have their external stops narrowed just slightly to reliably lock in the AR mag well).

Here's my baby.....

Whoa, what is that thing? Info please!

It's a FAL with a 9mm quick change barreled system. I can change it from a 9mm to a 308 lightweight to a 308 HB sniper in a few minutes.

Basically you change out the barrel and the bolt and put in a mag adapter if you want 9mm. Nice little setup huh...

Here it is in it's 308 "tactified" version

I still prefer Ingram carbines, for a rifle I'd prefer a 10mm upper.

Where the heck did you get that, 50?
