    Mike,
    The different M416s
    M416 -plain jane model
    M416A1 -surge brake
    M416B1 -USMC w/ Mighty Mite rims and lifting rings
    IIRC there were plain jane M416s w/ lifting rings also used by the USMC, but have no specific designation.

    Also IIRC some data plates were labeled as M614 or something like that. These were mistakes, but put on the trailers anyhow. I could be wrong on that, but from what I've seen of them (pictures only) they do look like plain ol' M416s.
