There is a Terminator 3 MP600, as well as an MP400 and MP700 model. The MP600 I am missing.What makes this such a daunting task, I have seen the same MP600 model with different knife variations.
Good thread Love the MP600!

I couldn't say because my collection over the years has been the camo proscout, a mr pinchy, black w/ carbides and w/o and most recently stainless with and without carbides.
Good luck with this undertaking sLaughtermd It will be quite a job but after it is all said and done will be a wonderful addition to the MT Wiki I know very little about Gerbers I am afraid or I would help all I could

Anyone know any other tool variations?
Quote from: sLaughterMed on August 31, 2016, 07:13:47 PM Anyone know any other tool variations?There is also the MP600, First Production Run, blunt nose pliers, black locking tabsAnd then there are Bob's extra-special prototypes http://forum.multitool.org/index.php/topic,49588.0/nowap.html

Any chance they made a Needle Nose FPR with black tabs, or a blunt nose FPR with grey tabs?

Any chance they made a Needle Nose FPR with black tabs, or a blunt nose FPR with grey tabs?Not that I've ever seen or heard of (but anything is possible with Gerber). I do have 2 Blunt nose (both have black tabs) and 3 Needle nose (all with grey tabs) FPR MP600s. I also have a Needle nose with grey tabs that is not marked FPR (but I suppose the FPR could have been removed somehow without leaving any trace)I suppose the MP650 will be a totally separate listing ? (it is very closely related to the MP600)
You have 5 FPRs??!??
I would think the FPR label was etched at the very least. Are the labels that delicate that one might be missing with no trace?
Quote from: sLaughterMed on September 01, 2016, 04:45:21 AMI would think the FPR label was etched at the very least. Are the labels that delicate that one might be missing with no trace?There is nothing on the handles to indicate it was once etched with FPR, and while the FPR lettering can fade it still leaves a trace. I think it might have just been a case of using up parts (ie grey locking tabs) left over from the original FPR run.
Great list mate. One I think you can add is the MP600 Maintenance Kit. Note the lack of scissors.
Do the FPRs have Simmonds files?
I have one needle nose MP600 FPR with black locking tabs (not the usual grey my other needle nose FPRs have )Both my needle nose MP60s with grey locking tabs have silver clips for the sliding plier mechanism, while all the other MP600s I looked at (FPR and non-FPR) that had black locking tabs had black clips.

A local collector was unloading some stuff and I picked this up from him. Just arrived in the mail this morning at work.It's only now that I'm starting with Gerber tools -- This is a MP600 Pro Scout, right?Can't wait to get home from work to give it a cleaning and a tune-up. I was lucky that the U-shank bit I found managed to squeeze itself beside the pliers head when it's folded in.(Image removed from quote.)
Look at Gerber Pro Scout. i really love it.
