I've been looking at pics of various Stockades and XD Stockades in different lighting, and I think there's a possibility there might be three variants. Behind the jam door some appear to have a white stripe, some have a light gray stripe, and other have a dark gray stripe. Taking into account that some Nerfers clearly mislabeled their N-Strike Elites as XDs and vice versa, there's no real way for me to tell what version has which variant.

I experienced a similar thing with the original N-Strike Elite Firestrike a couple years ago. The gray parts were slightly different on several blasters. I assumed there were multiple manufacturing facilities that use slightly different color schemes. Internally they all looked the same.

TBH I don't own a Stockade. But I have several Rampages. Besides the paint, there's no mechanical difference between the N-Strike Elite and XD versions. Bottom line, the NIC has been debunking XD blasters ever since they came out. All I was trying to point out to the OP was, if you're having a problem finding the XD Stockade, look for an N-Strike Elite version. They're basically identical.
