I'm curious how AHII earth brown compares to Daniel Defense's FDE on the Mk18 handguard.  Can anyone who's used it compare it to DD's FDE?  Thanks.

I haven't used that color but just used the Coyote color and it's a very good match to Magpul FDE.  Hope that helps.

This is Brownell's alumahyde in coyote with Magpul's FDE grip and panel.  You could compare your parts to the Magpul FDE to get an idea.



Quick how to

fyi brownells now sells Magpul FDE in Allumihyde 2 :)

That's awesome.  I'd like to see someone do a side-by-side-by-side comparison of real Magpul FDE, AHII FDE, and AHII coyote.

Ask and you shall receive :)  I happened to have this pic from a few weeks ago lol.

Clockwise from the CTR: Magpul FDE CTR Stock, Brownell's Allumihyde II Magpul FDE on an extra AR stock i had lying around, and LWRCI FDE on their Ultra Compact Stock


ALL parts of this gun painted Allumihyde II Magpul FDE (except aim point cover obviously):


All furniture except the VFG is painted in Allumihyde II Earth Brown (i just hadn't had a chance to coat the OD VFG to brown yet for the pic)  The G19 is Allumihyde Coyote


Allumihyde Coyote:

Looks great, thanks for the pics
