Opinions on dark earth two tone look for Ar build with some specs

[USFSff]

After a lengthy stay at Rifle Gear I have chosen to do business with them for my first build... I was wondering what are your opinions on a dark earth two tone look using these parts
Rifle gear upper mid length
MOE Pistol grip, hand guard, and buttstock(dark earth)
and dark earth mag( not sure what the brand is)
LPK what ever is cheaper
JD machine's super show stopper special stripped lower ( the $89 one)... already in possesion
Not too sure if I wanna do it but it kinda "looks cool" so to speak... This AR is probably gonna be mostly a safe queen only because I dont have a whole lot of time to dedicate to shooting. Especially getting out to angeles or burrow canyon to do any effective shooting with it. I JUST WANT ONE...lol

I have to give ups to guys at Rifle Gear they were super awesome and took the time to explain every little detail on the AR as this is my first build and I had ALOT of questions...even when it got a lil crowded they stayed right with me making sure I understood and was making the right choice...I cant say enough about the customer service!

use a doublestar lower parts kit. I have had the best luck with their kits.

Do it!

Go to my thread on a 7.62x39 upper from earlier this week to see a two-tone with a lot of the parts you want. The buffer tube was durabaked tan, despite it's almost white color in the pictures. That was more the camera than anything else...

I don't think the MOE FDE mid-length handguards are out yet though.

^^^Yeah I think they are still on stand by for now

Well now that you mentioned it I think they said they are not out yet, but the upper wont come till later on this summer... plus Im purchasing another shotgun for clays and a marlin 60 for my sons in a few weeks... but the AR lower half will most likely be built up here in the next few weeks... getting a lil excited...GREAT... i think the bug has worked its way under my skin...

Yeah....well....just wait till the bug drills its way into your bank account. Its like gun crack....its never good enough...there's never enough stuff....theres too many options.

2-done dark earth is kewl. here's an early picture but i don't have the FDE MOE grip installed yet, or the FDE 10/20 mag. Also, haven't put on the FDW rail covers though I want to get the FDW XTM instead and use the ergo FDE rail covers on my ar-10 2-tone build instead.

Just a note. you might want to stay with same brand on the dark earth. some of them don't quite match in color or tone. so just keep an eye on it. that's why i stuck with magpul all the way.



p.s. we all want one anyway.

The Gun Bug bit about 2yrs ago...and now its to the point where I have to occupy what little time off as to not end up in a gun store or anything remote to it! Or I try and leave all the plastic at home and go to "just look" hahha... Well all these fine examples of Two toners is making it concrete!Love it!...I wish I was more into handguns...at least then I can only buy one per month..lol

[USFSff]

and after they let me fondle the Eotech holographic loveliness...my knees got weak...HELP! must....stick...with....iron...sights!!! who am i kidding...I always laughed at the ladies for wanting $2000 purses or $300 shoes..HA!
