All chrome bolt/carrier and the little triagular charging handle. Serial # was three digit. They also brought in a Colt CGL and a trench gun version of a model #25 Winchester. This was in the mid eighties. While working in the DS shop I had one fome in from an Air Guard unit that was marked ” XM-15 Armilite Division of Fairchild Aircraft Co.

Governments will probably not want serial number information public, if a gun got in the wrong hands it could be very embarrassing! But I could be wrong.
