Very interesting piece of Sterling history that I have never seen - an experimental 308 LMG in a Sterling tube-like configuration. I checked TGOD and could find no mention of this one or the rifle version.

Yet the experimental S11 is covered extensively in TGoD.

Matthew Moss's book "The Sterling Submachine Gun", Osprey Publishing 2018, does cover the LMG and the rifle on pages 33-35. He attributes the design to both Sandy Cormack and Frank Waters. The video does as well, but has an over written correction at 1:20 that states the Frank Waters was the designer of both guns.
