Browning BAR/date of manufacture

I have a BAR with SN 40567M70. I assumed it was made in 1970, but when I checked the Browning website, that particular pattern of numbers was not listed for that date range. Can anyone tell me the year it was manufactured?

Mat Eastmans book states your rifle was made in 1970.
