I think you're on the right track looking at the other small Realistic models, I think any of them could be period correct and likely candidates for trooper-purchased units as Radio Shack was probably the go to place for CB's back in the '90's.
I may end up going with a Uniden pro510 or 520xl. I have a 510 that I got used back around 97 or so, so I know they were around in the mid-late 90's.

It has the same look and looks exact from the side like the realistic. All the realistic 418's I can find don't come with a mounting bracket or anything. I can still get the Unidens brand new with all mounting hardware.
