Has anyone seen one of the Daniel Defense Deep Woods carbines in person? I wonder how close it is to FG. Their pictures on their website make every gun listed look a different shade of green.

Anyone know a cerakoter who is actually good at Foliage Green?

I don't seem to be having luck.

Olive drab is not foliage.

Foliage is not shiny.

Black is just about the absolute worst color to chose when trying not to stand out. True black is almost non existent in nature and stands out like a sore thumb in nearly any environment, including at night in the dark because objects in low light are not even true black. I suppose black could work in the complete absence of light (sealed tank, underground with no light source at all etc.). Practically speaking, black sucks as a rifle finish and as a uniform/camoflage.

BUMP! Disappointed to see DD no longer offers a lot of their configurations in Deep Woods. I was thinking of getting the M4A1 SOCOM and then changing the barrel to a 10.5 or 11.5 and throwing on a MK4 Federal in OD green.

Stripped it completely down and sprayed the receivers, rail, and top of the brace with aerosol Duracoat Magpul Foliage Green...but the color looked too “off”.  I found out about the Rustoleum Primer that was a close match to Magpul Foliage and figured worse case, at least the Duracoat would be a good base coat.  The AFG is a cheap knockoff.  The BCM rail panels were cerakoted in foliage by Joint Force Enterprises.  Pretty pleased with the final product:

Anyone know if Bravo Company has done like magpul did and discontinue the Foliage Green color?
They have a few F.G. parts listed but their gunfighter stock is out of stock.

Also their new stocks are in Black, FDE and Gray only.

Hopefully not, but I ordered some foliage trigger guards & MOD 3 grips.  Really hoping the stocks become available and the color isn’t going away.

Can’t live in the box forever.

My Foliage build-

Centurion 16” barrel, mid length
ALG V2 15” rail
BCM M4 upper
Spikes CL BCG
Aimpoint PRO
Surefire M952V
Foliage MBUS
Foliage UBR with strike plate
Foliage MIAD
ALG ACT with JP springs
H2 buffer

Tried color matching with some Rustoleum Self Etching green primer on some magpul rail covers and grip stop. Didnt come out all that great. Have a dozen foliage mags though at least.

The BCM furniture looks a little "minty" in these pics.  I wish Magpul would bring foliage back; the Magpul handstop kit and type-2 rail covers are Cerakoted.

Pardon my confusion, but is the firearm shown in the background of this photo likely a foliage green AR-15?

If so, is that an M-LOK handguard of some sort with an integral picatinny rail, or something else (and would anyone be able to identify the manufacturer)?

Would it likely be available from the manufacturer in foliage green or would that need to have had a Cerakote or other finish applied?

That looks like some variant of the Sig Sauer MCX.  I don’t believe sig produced them in any green hues; pretty sure they only produced them in black, FDE/Tan, and grey.

Thanks!

I sometimes have difficulty distinguishing between foliage green and various gray hues - it appears that SIG has a 'stealth gray' finish option which may be what I'm seeing in that photo.

Here's my Rock River- still pretty much the way it looked 15 years ago when I stuck all that Magpul stuff on it. Yes that is a vintage 2007ish EOTech.

The green handled Ontario M9 bayonet matches the Magpul foliage green pretty well.

Must have been a while ago or you got the last remaining stock of the discontinued color.
