That chocolate odg looks awesome. I will take it off your hands if the other guy doesn’t!

I don't dislike the color, just disappointed it wasn't even close to ODG for my planned clone build. I would taken one of each color if I would have known. The variance in the green anodizing in the last two weeks is extreme and seems much greater than the FDE over the past 5 years. It is a little concerning.

Sell it to me
Or I’m sure you can find someone to trade with if you don’t send it back |

Every single rail I get from Geissele is poo brown or dark gold. Hoping my ODG isn't brown but knowing my luck...

Got mine today. Pretty freaking pleased. Even matches my ‘flops. Tube is one of the Colt ones from the EE.

The variation in the green anodizing is pretty wild. I was hoping for a lighter brighter shade myself.
I really hope Geissele adds ODG to the standard menu. ALG runs 4 different anodizing options so I know it's not out of the realm of possibilities. |

My Fed rail ended up on the dark side of the ODG spectrum. It looks more greenish when alone, but looks brown when placed next the other colors.

Any MK1 FBI clones? I've got an extra rail pulled from a BCM Jack just laying around. And I don't like the ergos of the MK4.

Are most of you guys using the Geissele gas block? I’m thinking about sending my FBI Barrel to ADCO to shave down the FSB.
Any pros to using the Geissele? |
