In addition to being hard on the eyes, stens were notoriously unreliable. Prone to jams, misfires and stoppages, the guns had an unfortunate tendency to blaze through an entire clip when dropped, jostled or even just set down carelessly. Surprisingly, British troops eventually used this shortcoming to their advantage in combat. A squad of infantrymen could clear a room by simply tossing one or two loaded and cocked stens through a door or window. The guns would discharge on impact and rattle ammo off in all directions until empty.
