Contus Marauder Equipment

[LT. Ox]

This M-2 was picked up during execution search warrant for drugs, specifically meth; it was a “shotgun news” conversion if I am remembering correctly. Big problem was the serial number (top rear of receiver) had been ground off.
I was not familiar with them at the time but curious about the selector, I had not seen one before.
Both the M-1 carbine and the M-14 could be “field modified” by dropping the trigger group and inserting a piece of twig in the proper location (impeding the sear) it was not selective fire but would fire auto until trigger was released, or the damn twig fell out. We used them in AIT as op force to give us some “extra” fire power during training ambush and counter ambush tactics.
