As the tiltle says can anyone tell me and others how to tell the difference between the 2 boxes or do you have to pull apart to check i would like to think you can identify the 2 by the outside somehow, if so what is there too look for. Ive seen so many on ebay saying genuine m21 and they say i was told it was by a mate or the casting number on the side of the box tells you . I can assure you it doesnt as my books say its a casting number only, Any thoughts on this would be appreciatted as i am looking for one.. chers daza
