In Fallout New Vegas, I would like to get La Longue Carabine from Corporal Sterling, but am unsure how. I have very low sneak, and it doesn't even appear in his inventory to be stolen, is there any easy way to get this weapon that does not involve angering the NCR?

Why wouldn't it be? The only spot where you may need to do any fighting at all is getting Beagle out of the hostage situation. But you can lockpick the door in the lobby and find a key on there that lets you sneak past all the convicts. Getting Mayers as a sheriff is dead easy - you just need some Powder Ganger outfit (you can try to steal one at the powder ganger outpost just south of Goodsprings). Otherwise you can pass Science check to repair Slim Primm or Convince Knight at Mojave outpost to send reinforcements. None of those options involve any fighting at all.
Goodsprings has most of what you're looking for, I didn't use the school house, instead I used the boxes next to where you took target practice, both work benches are there. AFAIK you only need 1 box to store a lot of stuff. If it's because of sorting, well you can click on the top of your inventory window, click on the "Items" in the title bar, that will give you different types of sorts.

An alternative to killing him is to pickpocket the ammo he carries, then fast travel and come back.
When you return he will have the gun in his inventory available to be stolen.
