I've been trying to find a tan color to get my BCM rifle coated in, and I think this thread has convinced me to do patriot brown, it looks like the perfect balance between FDE and dark brown.

not only is it a nice dark version of fde it wears extremely well , it's pretty tuff stuff.


here's a few updated pics of my rifle  , there have been some really nice set ups in here since page 3

i got lucky and scored an su230a elcan and ran it for a while , great optic



then i got the night vision bug and traded it away towards some nods so she's back to wearing an nsx compact , but i did get some cool night vision stuff to play with

Seems there is zero consistency in the color? Thinking of going with patriot brown cerakote but I have no clue what I'm gonna get in the finished product. Looking for a darker brown, (dark chocolate) and flat, not glossy.

Some look like the color I want others are too creamy/tan and glossy looking.

In my personal opinion, the Leonidas is a classic that ushered in a new era for AR's. I remember Noveske's first videos and my first ever SBR was a Noveske 10.5 6.8 SPC back in 2007. I ended up going on a Noveske kick the next few years and ended up with over a dozen of their rifles and upper. One was even a first gen 18" N6 back when they were using DD rails for their builds. The Leonidas was always on my wish list and I still regret not ever getting one.

A good friend of mine has one and he may eventually sell it to me one day but, I won't hold my breathe. The only reason I sold my N6 was because I saw the way the industry was headed with SR25/DPMS pattern aftermarket support and figured I should sell it before it would depreciate more in value. I ended up making a pretty decent amount over what I had into it so, it lessened the sting of having to let it go. Also, I used the funds to get my ultimate dream rifle which is the SR25 and it's still my favorite till this day.

Not an AR, but it’s the correct color. Flatter in natural light than in the picture.

I wondered as well. I thought that patriot brown would be a good alternative to OD Green in my AO, but that photo has changed my mind. If patriot brown registers that dark in daylight (without direct sun light), in my opinion, it's far too dark to be a worthwhile alternative because it appears too close to standard black. Disappointing to say the least.
