I have been looking at a couple of the M27s no dash.
One is Nickel in S208XXX serial range and the other is Blue in S210XXX range. Both come with supposedly original boxes - gray for a nickel gun and blue for a blued gun. The strangest thing is that one box has no end label and has a serial number written in white grease pencil on the bottom and the other one has a white paper label on the side of the box. With all the fake boxes and labels proliferation, when was the white label actually introduced?
Is there a serial range for M27 where white paper labels start to appear on the side of the box?
Thank you!
