Not sure, but the Korean War thru present bracket does not use the same mounting hole pattern. The specs for the 3 tools are the same tho.
Just checked the NOS M-Series brackets I have, and they are lighter Gusge material.

I have studied several WWII and early Korean War period photos of CCKWs with Pioneer Racks installed, there are at least three variations. All are longer than M-series.
I have one of Kevin Kronland's NOS Pioneer Racks that are WWII Design. They are nice. Would like to see detail of wood spacers used to mount on side of CCKW Steel Cargo Rub Rails in manner of the ones depicted in 1941 and early WWII photos. One can view these in the Vintage Video Army Driver Training film.
