DD E-11 with real Sterling parts?

I've been researching for a while now as I wait for my DD E-11 to arrive and I have just come across parts from a real Sterling and ws wondering if the bolt can be used in the DD? Not sure if the it could be possible or not to use any of the other original parts as well, looks like everything's there but missing a small chunk of the barrel and the shroud. I apologize if this is already in the forum and I missed it.

 

Thanks

The bolt likely cannot be used, due to the inner diameter of the DD upper receiver tube.  Hollowing it out to a diameter that would accommodate the bolt would likely leave your E-11 very, very susceptible to failure in the rear half of the tube.

My DD E-11 does incorporate the actual folding stock from a Sterling.  Dependent upon what you have, other parts can probably be used (sight apertures for instance could probably be used as well as a few others.

If you do a pipe build, then you should be able to use the real bolt.
