I am looking for rattle can paint that closely resembles Patriot Brown and FDE. Does anyone know the rattle can equivalent of these colors off the top of their head? I don't care if it lasts or is durable. Pic of the SBR in question

No help with the colors, but that's a nice looking rifle.

Krylon makes the camo line which has a fde/ tan color I know.  I have used it with a matte clear on a scar clone 22 looked like the factory tan

This is the best I could find from the refinishing thread.

Look at the Aervoe line. I like the looks of the Field Drab.

Thanks for the compliments fellas. Thanks for the advice as well. Does anyone know if Lowes or Home Depot have those colors or do I have to order them online?


As far as the rifle its an LWRC PSD lower I got as a PSD on a Form 4 and the upper is a 10.5" LWRC M6IC-A5. Modern Outfitters had a run of ten of them. They cost a fortune but if I designed the perfect AR suppressor host this would be it.

Looks great like it is.  Why half ass something that in short order is likely to look worst than what you started with?  Lowes and Home Depot (and some Walmarts) sell Preval sprayer cans for $5, you can apply Cerakote with these, it lays down nice and even.

How is spray paint half ass? It is a tool correct? Does spraying it effect the function of it? Pray paint is one of the most effective forms of camoflouge, for those that intend to use the rifle and may want to hide it go for it. Not everybody wants to cerekote and have that perfect looking rifle. I see way to many people on this page cry ( NOT YOU) about dinging up their firearm. People throw fits and waste money just to have their rifle match.
