Blackout light question

Post by DJ »

Is this the correct blackout light for a M38?

That one came off an m151 originally. I have heard that some very late 1963 plus m38a1's and m170's went to the one wire m151 b.o. light but i havent seen this first hand .The bracket is m151 as it is alot more flemsy and lighter wieght than the m38 type

Wow! Somebody paid way too much for that light. The right part can be bought new for 10.00 more from a dealer.
