White finish?

[dchang0]

I remember seeing someone's photo of a prototype Magpul receiver with a white finish, and then seeing "Black Rifle Disease" spelled out in someone's signature led me to ask this question:

Has anyone built a completely white AR?

Photos?
Does anyone sell white-finished parts and rifles?

Just wondering. HK tried to fight the "black rifle" image by producing the SL8 in light grey--to some degree, color does affect a person's reaction (repeated research has proven this).

For instance, I carry a safety-yellow Benchmade Doug Ritter Mini RSK, and people just don't react the same to it as they do to my all-black Mini RSK. With the yellow handle, people think it's some sort of box-cutter. With the black handle and coated blade, they get scared!

A white rifle should then be less scary or evil-looking...

DPMS has this:

Seems like a white rifle would be a real challenge to keep clean.

Sweet! Yeah, keeping it clean would be a pain, but I've found that Bissell's Little Green Machine Carpet Cleaner is exceptional for keeping white stuff (leathers, plastics, finished products) nice and white. It's got some sort of ammonia mix in it, IIRC.

Thanks for the pic!

some black or grey tiger stripes for a wicked winter camo.

Not an AR but this is interesting:

It's actually light gray.

Many years ago, Cavalry Arms made white furniture sets. But, they had such a hard time keeping them white, they eventually gave up and just started making them in grey.
