| I used Brownell's Alumahyde II Earth Brown on my YHM foregrip above. It is a tad darker than the Magpul FDE as you can see, but it is close. I have tried Aervoe Dark Earth and everything else in a can. The Alumahyde was the closest. |

200lbs standing on a cheap ass bar stool isnt a good idea. Trust me

    Technically the Magpul stuff is Flat Dark Earth but the Ergo Panels are Coyote Tan...

-What do you need a gun for?
-Its about the same idea as a condom, its better to have one and not need it then to need it and not have one.
They'll take my guns from me when they pry them from my cold dead fingers!!

I like it! Ive got a FDE Sopmod on the way... I hope it matches my Tangodown stuff ive already got. |
<img src=/images/smilies/anim_kill.gif border=0 align=middle> Thanks Tom <img src=/images/smilies/anim_heavy.gif border=0 align=middle>
It'll be very close to the same FDE. From the few pics i've seen of the FDE SOPMOD with the FDE TDVG, you'll be happy. HS1 HS1 |

Arguably the nicest SBR Ive seen in a long time. I just have to ask how you can legally own that col shit in the Republik of California? |
Thanks.....It's Norrell's molycoat. The optic is a Meopta Kdot. It's a true 1x to 4x with an illuminated reticle. Bomber |
You cannot defend the indefensible.......the ammunition availible to shoot holes in your position (arguement) is without limits.
Thanks, It's just a start. Everything was sandblasted, and DuraCoat'ed Magpul FDE. The barrel and suppressor were sprayed with Woodland Tan DuraHeat (supposed to handle up to 1800 degrees F.). I plan on a variety of enamel camo patterns...I'll be able to clean them off with thinner, without harming my FDE basecoat. The "plastic" parts, minus the stock, are FDE. As for the lettering, I'll start a thread in a few days explaining that process. |

I know..I know... It's been in-process for over a month You and ML are the only Arfcommers that know how I did the lettering. I'll share in a few days...pics to be taken of the process. My rough test for the "special" camo pattern came out REALLY nice (clever and unique).  |

Mark ....can't wait for that! Seriously I may have to try it once you post a how to. It looks beautiful!!! I'm thinkin something like that would look good on the 13.7 build we were talking about. |

Modest? How about Awesome Work, Mr HK .45. Now I need a FDE Rifle. Wondering if I should convert one of my Existing Carbines...  Nathan |
Would also LOVE to know how you did the letters. Great job! |
so much sexiness in one rifle should be a crime
|
very nice! |

mfingar, I have to say out of all the incredible rigs you post on this board this is with out a doubt my favorite so far! Love the FDE.... 
|
Very well done! Probably the nicest weapon I have seen on this forum (or any forum for that matter). Stephen |
Please hijack( if the op doesnt mind) all you want............I am sure we are all getting a ton of good ideas from your builds, as well as those of Mfingar.....there isnt a bad pic in this bunch

Thanks for the kind words...but I'm just getting started. I've got another upper in the works, with a different configuration; Stealth Upper, Aimpoint, LT BUIS, Etc. Hopefully, this weekend, I'll get around to the lettering info (I've been really busy  ) |

He may have you beat on the artwork....But few, if any, rifles ever display more character than yours. |
