Re: My new anodized colors
The gray looks better in person, the light almost makes it look like 2 shades, but it isn't.

When you take a picture set your camera to manual white balance. Shoot at high noon. Set your wb to 5250 kelvin. Save your picture for the web as color profile srgb.

Good to see someone doing green, FDE isn't exactly the best color for us northern folks.

exactly!!! Plus you know if these wars we are currently fighting were located in jugnle areas everyone would be obsessed with OD instead of FDE.
Great looking product - most anodized colors looks to shiney/satin to me.

Re: My new anodized colors
I'll have to find out how much a set would be, I think andozing one would be cheaper than cerakote unless i gotta take it all apart and bead blast it. I'll pm ya a price.

Re: My new anodized colors
As stated, these look even better in person! They grey is really kickass and the green would disappear in thick woods.....

Re: My new anodized colors
Axeman, your right about the anodizing, but all the bright colors are type II anodizing, not quite hard enough for our rifles, they are slowly coming out with new stuff for type III.
I know a guy who is doing pink/blue/red/etc... already but its type II.
