M1 vs. M2

Anyone know the changes the M2 has over the M1? Cause they both look almost the same to me. Mr. Wolf (talk) 00:52, 13 November 2015 (EST)

It might be that our image is actually an M2, since the only different-looking M1 I can find is the bottom one here (top is a 2015 M4 model). Apparently the M1 is the 1948 domestic version and the M2 the first export model, so chances are all our live action M1s not in pre-1964 Swedish military assisted productions are actually M2s. I think the M2 image is an M2 550 or something, a version with a new sight that can also go on the standard M2 and isn't marketed as a separate model anymore.

Unless it's actually id'ed as a real M1 in the movie/game all the listed "M1s" so far are M2s. We'll have to bring this up with other peeps so we can get agreement to change all the "M1" listings accordingly. Mr. Wolf (talk)

Ok, was wrong there, the 550 must be the tiny image one, it has a bulkier scope if you look closely. Evil Tim (talk) 20:49, 13 November 2015 (EST)

Hella awesome job Tim! Mr. Wolf (talk) 08:35, 14 November 2015 (EST)
