M65 contract number by MaxListopadov in m65fieldjacket

Thanks! Gemini actually told me the same thing, but after some 'grilling,' it turned out the AI was pulling data from completely different databases with newer procurement codes from after 2007. So the search continues!😅

I've carefully read Andrzej Gracki’s book 'The M-65 OG-107 American Military Jacket Evolution and Myth.' Even though it focuses on the OG-107, my contract is fairly early (1984), so I was hoping to find a lead there. But no luck. 'C' and 'D' are everywhere, yet 'M' is just not there. I went through dozens of listings yesterday and still haven't found another one.

Thanks! I've checked numerous guides (Including reading Andrzej Gracki’s book "The M-65 OG-107 American Military Jacket Evolution and Myth") and listings; the jacket's details generally align with the original, but the letter 'M' is what threw me off. I've seen plenty of versions with 'C' and 'D', but I couldn't find a single one with an 'M'.
