Septuagint apparatus

Quick, stupid brain-picking question from amateur lurker:

Am trying to go back to regaining lost (rotten) Hebrew, while 
practicing rotten Greek, by reading Daniel in Heb & Sept together.  
Problem is, Sept apparatus is using a capital M (regular font) not 
covered in its abbreviations list.  Is that just a slip-of-the-font 
for the old-English (or whatever) M = Masoretic Text?  Or is there a 
standard abbreviation "M" that they expect everyone to recognize 
without their bothering to list it?  There are some such expressions 
used, e.g., "inscr" for, I assume, "inscriptions."

Thank you for tutoring the unlettered.
