I have narrowed down the SN range for the dark gray/light gray boxes for the P7M10: :)

KC (92) 021-907 (dark gray cardboard box)
KC (92) 021-922 (light gray cardboard box)

If anyone has a SN within this range and the box, can you please PM me with the information? ;)

Tony

During 1992 (KC date code) the dark Gray boxes were originally intended for the blued M10s and the light Gray/white boxes were intended for the Nickel M10s. There were some blued M10s in the 021-9xx range that had light Gray/white boxes when HK ran out of the dark Gray boxes. The Nickel M10s were discontinued in late 1992 and HK went back to making the blued M10s in 1993 (KD date code). The KD date codes blued m10s were then shipped in a tan cardboard box with the exception of the 127ish Cat 7454 Italian Military contract overruns. The CAT M10s were shipped in light Gray/white box like the KC date code Nickels.

Excellent information. ;)
