"Help please" Magpul PTS or A&K or Rebrand?

So I bought this off a friend awhile back and have had it upgraded. I went to sell it and it was brought to my attention that it may not be official Magpul PTS, even though the official logo is on the box. I'm curious to know which it is. From the pictures I've seen the Magpul PTS has a more official Magpul style box, but the others are different as well. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

Sorry, the light is blocking out the "PTS" on my gun's box.

Here's a pic of the official looking box.

It appears to be the A&K version. As far as I know only 3 different versions were made, A&k, PTS, and PTS Streamline.

I guess I'll have to try and get one side by side, because they look the same.

The black one is an A&K. Handguard is shorter then the original PTS version (along with the upper receiver) and doesn't have the small hole on the side.
The A&K version also won't have a lip around the shell ejection opening and has a different hop up system and the charging handle is farther back on the receiver. Both the reg PTS and Streamline have the charging handle farther forward.

(Later A&Ks were licensed and sold with the PTS logo)

Thanks guys. After doing some digging I believe it is an A&K. So many different models from each shared aspects, which made it hard to nail down.

Hopups are different too. Slider adjust on a&k. Dial on pts. Not sure of streamline though :-/

Not much difference between the regular and streamline version, mainly plastic used and various externals (flip up sights, folding stock).

No idea where people get the impression it's significantly different.
