| Asked the same and was told that Wolf Grey and Foliage Green make up less than 1% of sales so they aren’t making them anymore. I was also told a Mod 3 gunfighter stock is coming out by end of summer in Black and FDE to follow |

Looks great. |

I think it would look a little closer to Magpul's ODG if I had started with an FDE grip to add a little more brown, so I’m going to try that next time. |

I may have to give it as go since BCM won’t do o.d. |
   BCM 14.5" government profile barrel with pinned muzzle brake. BCM BCG and charging handle. Daniel Defence Omega X rail. IWC / HSP Thorntail SBR light mount with Surefire Scout light. Magpul XTM rail covers in factory foliage green and OD. Aimpoint PRO with the Midwest Industries QD base on the factory Aimpoint mount. KAC 300M rear sight. B5 SOPMOD Bravo Stock. BCM Gunfighter pistol grip in factory foliage green. Magpul polymer trigger guard. Magpul PMAG Gen 2. It is interesting to note that the PMAG and the stock were black. They did not come in foliage green. The XTM rail panels came from the factory in foliage green and OD green. So the stock and the magazine were (gasp) painted with a spray can. The color is almost a perfect match, although my cell phone camera shows it more shiny than it is. If you want foliage green, here is the secret. Rust-Oleum, Dark Green, 249322, Automotive Self Etching Primer Spray Paint. It is available at Lowe's, possibly Home Depot, and off of Amazon which is where I got mine. Beware that sometimes on line retailers say it is gray. Be sure you get the dark green. |
