    Ahhh...maybe this one?

    That one appeared to be marked on two of the parts - the trigger housing and on the disconnector bar. Very unique. Cool box, too.

    Thank you very much! I've learned much from members there, also. What's your board name there?
    MontanaRenegade86. I don't post a lot but I spend a lot of hours on both Sturm and MachineGunBoards doing research.

    RenegadeConservative,

    Yes, thats the one in the box that I remember, but it's not the same as the "odd device" that I recall. I think I'm combining two different M2 memories into one, and remembering the unique box. The special slide that you mentioned is what I think the odd device was.

    I remember seeing your MontanaRenegade86 board name before, and will keep an eye out for you on the boards.

    Thanks!

    Here is a Gunbroker auction for one of the XD prefix carbines, serial number XD100. Notice that the Carbine roll marking is not shown...I need to check on the quantity of XD's produced. The auction indicates there were 800.
