PSA M4 16" with a B5 Systems Bravo stock and Umbrella Corp grip in foliage green. Optic is an EOTech 512 and the rail is a Midwest Industries Gen2 2 piece. I plan on actually cutting down the FSB and getting rid of the two piece and going to a one piece handguard, possibly a keymod. This build is far from complete.

Will most likely end up painting mags and scope. Still needs a bi-pod and a good trigger.

I just ordered a pile of magpul foliage green plastic.  (Ctr, grip, front and rear sights, vfg, and rail covers)
I'm joining the fog clan!    
I just bought a media blasting cabinet and retrofitted a old smoker to be my drying oven, so I'm not sure what to do with the receivers and mi quad rail....

The upper is a cosmetic blem, so I need to at least black it out.  I was thinking of a grey, or tan, but not many go away from black on this subject

Hello everyone,

This is my foliage green rifle example. After seeing the great rifle pictures in this thread I had to have my own. I am still waiting on my Battelink Minimalist Stock in foliage green to come in (I have been waiting over 4 months!).

They say they got slammed.  I sent my first 2 to them in October, and had them back in 12 days, total time.

They've had mine since Jan 9th, and they still weren't back so I called them up and drove over there Friday and picked them up.  IDK if they were already engraved or if they did it in the 2 hours it took me to get over there, but they didn't put the blackening agent on them until I got there.

ETA: The engraving is top notch, but 2 months is a long time to wait for engraving.

I think this is par for the course for them. I don't remember exactly how long my wait time was, but I remember not being happy with it at all.
They blamed the excess time on employees taking vacation for Christmas, then they had to go to SHOT show, then they had a backlog of lowers to engrave when they got back. IIRC my wait was close to 2 months. And when I recieved my lower there were sanding marks around my engraving. It looked like they screwed up the spelling, ground it down with some 80 grit, and engraved it again.

I will not use them again.

Posted this one earlier, but this seemed like a better place to post foliage green builds. Just a little something I slammed together. Magpul furniture. Rail is some no name that I liked the look of, so I Cerakoted it  and all of the lowers small parts for the build. 16" Rainier Arms Ultra Match barrel with a PWS 556 brake. Timney trigger in a Quintine Defense lower topped with a Cross Hills Technologies side charging upper. Nothing fancy.

We'll be seeing a lot fewer Foliage ARs now that Magpul has announced the color is being discontinued by the end of the year.  It's a shame, FG is a very useful color around here.

First post!  

So here's my creation after waiting nearly 11 months...a Noveske Johnny Rifle inspired build (have one of theirs on order so didn't want to have two of the same thing)...

Noveske MUR Upper
Noveske NSR-9
Noveske 10.5 CQB barrel
Surefire SOCOM 5.56 RC
Surefire Muzzle Brake
Surefire Scout Light 600U
Surefire SR04
Thorntail Scout Light mount
Noveske Battle Sights
Larue Tactical LT129 with Aimpoint PRO
Eotech G33
Noveske Raptor Ambi Charging handle
Noveske BCG

Noveske Gen 2 lower
White Oak LPK
Geissele SD-C trigger
BADASS short throw with standard levers
Magpul K grip and BAD lever
Vltor A5 with iMOD stock
Magpul MS4 sling

Cerakote was done by Redcreek Tactical...with the lower almost getting lost by FedEx ground (long story)...

shoots well in my hands and can't thank my local gun shop (Andy and the Engage Armament team) enough for sound advice and getting me to do both stamps...it was well worth it in my opinion...

It's a Noveske 300 Blackout barrel (just like John's personal carbine), so the length is 10.2" (vs. the 10.5" counterpart for 5.56). The NSR is the 9" version.

Way ahead of you. Already found your build thread. I've got a gen 2 lower and a VLTOR MUR set aside for it already (any good reason to spend extra for a noveske when it's going to get cerakoted?). Thats a pretty expensive little barrel. How's it shoot?

Nice. Now you just gotta save up for the Schmidt and Bender short dot, so your build will be authentic...
