I had to squeeze in another update, to US Grenade Launchers. The sight I had listed on the Milkor USA M-32 was wrong, and I fixed the reference.

Paul,

I noticed the entry for the Enfield Sten is doubled. That said, I was curious if you wanted to add there was a prototype for a Sten Mk IIS with night-vision that was developed but never deployed. Something of a technical curiosity, of course.

(I have a picture of a British soldier using one, with an IR lamp under the barrel and a scope mounted on top. There is a power cord of some kind going from the scope to a back-carried battery pack. War Monthly magazine, Issue #34, 1976.)

I fixed the duplicate Sten entry. Do you have a picture for the Sten IIS with night vision equipment? I'll add a note like I did for the M-1 Carbine version with night vision equipment, but probably not an individual entry on the tables.

Paul,

I don't have a bed scanner, so I took a picture and uploaded it. My apologies for the poor quality!

Agreed, this doesn't require a new entire entry but a footnote at most.

It's definitely smaller than that monstrosity they tried to mount on the M-1 Carbine.
