PS: Anyone notice the Type II Barrel Band on the M2 Carbine in the 1943 Dated Ordnance movie?

I believe the Title with 1943 is in error. Authorization to go ahead with testing the select fire was i believe June 1944 and subsequently done on "experimental" models. Think testing was September or October. Close call as to the film being 1944 or 1945. Take a look at the selector switch, not a production switch.

*EDIT* to add FM 21-7 lists it as 1945 with a running time of 15 minutes
