It looks like other differences include the way the folding stock is made. The wire is not forged to form the locking lug, the wire stock is welded to separate brackets. The magazine hole is bigger on the PS M11.

Good catch about the stock welds, Strobo!
I had to go drag out some guns and double check. So much for my powers of observation.
I shot a quick rogues gallery while I was at it. Guns they came off of:
PS 9mm Auto, RPB M11, SWD M11A1
I was too lazy to check the mag well openings; I trust you. ;-)
Kudos to Strobo for digging where others have not ventured.

I find the OEM stock endearing. One of the upgrades that I made to my SWD M11 was to add a spring to the locking bar on the stock loop. I never had it collapse with the spring. I plan on adding it to my MAC M11.

Someone needs to start a boycott campaign on Photobucket!
Their decision to quit third party hosting retroactively has ruined so many great historical posts all over the Internet.
I switched to Imgur a while back and don't regret it. So have a lot of the hardcore MG guys.

The M10 stocks have springs, or at least mine do.
I thought about adding one to others, but I figured the search for the right spring was just way too complicated. So many projects...so little time.
Repost your pics that aren't showing? Teasing us like that just isn't nice. LOLOL

Top pic is opposite in comparison to the two bottom pics.
Also one lower is missing the long spring and the other is missing the disconnector spring.
As a side note, you can see the PS lower pin hole is wallowed out, I'd rather have the reinforced RPB/SWD.

Long spring?
You do see that one is a semi open bolt right?
As far as the pin hole being "wallered out"... I'm sorry but how could you possibly see that in a pic? Normally the egging takes a mic to tell.

Ha. Got me on the open bolt. no need for the long spring without a selector. Where's the disconnector spring on the PS gun?
For the pivot pin hole, I guess you don't have a smartphone or tablet, easy to zoom in. Here.

The previous owner admitted tapping the take down pin from right to left with a nylon mallet resulting in the break in finish on the left interior of the frame hole. The upper is tight to the frame when the grooved take down pin is in its locked position.
The "reinforced" (stamped and welded plate) isn't a reinforcement. It was done as a cost cutting measure after the move from Powder Springs.
The stepped barrel, take down lever, the U notched lower to allow access to the take down lever, magazine well geometry, feed ramp geometry, adjustable front sight, sear geometry, stock block geometry, two piece strap hanger (welded) along with the multi-part welded shoulder stock , coil spring under the trigger... are just a few of the unique nuances only found on the original Powder Springs M11's.
MAC collectors and aficionados will appreciate the thought, time, and effort put into the original guns which makes them unique and desirable to some individuals. The average shooter who simply wants a gun for phone booth gunfights is better suited with the later iteration weapons.

I’m guessing Ruben. And he has a $8,995 m11 right now too
