Wise Lite Arms Sterling Sporter 9mm

Updated August 21, 2026

Make: Wise Lite Arms Model: Sterling Sporter Caliber: 9mm Action: Semi Barrel: 16 Bore: Bright Serial # WLA29-C03214 Condition: Very Good The Wise Lite Arms Sterling Sporter is a civilian, semi-automatic carbine built using surplus parts from the classic British Sterling L2A3 Mark 4 submachine gun. Distributed largely through Century Arms International, these firearms are highly collectible representations of cold-war history. To meet strict ATF regulations for civilian sale, Wise Lite Arms (WLA) heavily modified the original military open-bolt design by converting from the original open-bolt selective-fire system to a dedicated semi-automatic, closed-bolt design. It is fitted with an extended 16” barrel to comply with federal rifle length law and the barrel retention system is threaded differently than an original military Sterling, meaning surplus military barrels cannot be directly swapped into a Wise Lite receiver. It retains the iconic metal underfolding stock that locks tightly beneath the perforated cooling shroud. Includes 2 - 34rnd Sterling curved magazines. Please see photos.
