Most definitely Sterling SMGs.I remember as I was walking down the steps on the Mil supervisors side, to go to the crew-room for a coffee,there was a corporal coming in the opposite direction with a Sterling slung over his shoulder! In the six years I was there,the only other time I saw someone 'armed',was with a pick handle,when going in for a night shift.Never,ever,saw an SLR in that time.
