hello , I have a Bushamster AR15 in 5.56 . It is a plain jane model with a 16 inch barrel and I have never thought about bringing any color to it until now. When you guys add things with color what parts do you change out ? I do like the tan or FDE color . I have saw grips and forearms and stock . Is it expsensive ?

Grip, stock, handguard are typically what people change out. Magpul stuff is pretty cheap, but quality peices. Edited by satalac

I'm a fan of this one. And i assure you, my walls are not pink. Sorry, can't remember the magpul color code. In person, this rifle is darker in color than the picture would indicate. It looks almost tan in the picture. In reality, its a brown with a hint of green

I would avoid the Air-Soft version of Magpul products as they are lighter in weight and may not be durable enough for rough real life usage. Beyond that Magpul makes very good products that are NOT just plastic they are made of a reinforced ultra strong plastic that are well thought out. I've built one FDE carbine and one ODG rifle with Hogue grips which their colors match very nicely.

I'm a big fan of different colored furniture, especially FDE. I've tried to leave a AR black and have never been able to do it. My only with with actual FDE furniture on the left, the others are painted or coated FDE gy7y3u4y.jpg

Painted the wood on my AK with truck bed liner, really like the flat pebble grained finish makes it look very stealthy. Building my 23" AR pistol in all black, but I really like my FDE and ODG AR's...

Having a gunstock coated with LineX or Rhinolining isn't very expensive. I have called and they said it would be less than $50-$75 depending on color. It would make for a very, very durable stock for any gun. I have a stock I am working on, slowly, that will be coated once it is done. It is a stock that they do not make in left hand but I converted it. Looks and feels great other than the bolt cut out I need to fill and blend. No better way to do that than with some sort of bedliner.

 

I have used the roll on bed liner on stocks as well and it does work well. Not sure if I personally like the way it looks but it does hold up well.

Any color will do, to get rid of the evil "black rifle" stigma, it's for the children you know ...

I really like the look of a well worn down scratched up looking rifle . Paint/finish worn and chipped . I may just leave it as is . But the FDE colored items do look neat .

This is not mine, but soon enough mine will be close.

Tercel, you could always "age" the finish such as George Lucas did with the Star Wars props.

 

Why has no one posted this yet?
