Howdy folks. I was wondering if anyone had photo's of original m1911 and m1911a1 shipping boxes that they could share.

My reason is that I was looking at a Remington-Rand the other day (in a shipping box), and even though it seemed to fit the style, the only stamping on the top cover of the box was the numbers 01-00040. I've seen examples of other Remington boxes and there are (as you all know) other stampings as well. Could this be a replacement box, counterfeit, or just a generic? Like I said, the style of the box, coloring, and attached tape seemed in line with the Remington boxes I'v seen that had other stampings.

Thanks for any info in advance.

Semper Fi,
Joe P
