We recently completed an A2 pistol grip mold to further solidify our position in the industry as a one stop shop for everything plastic for the AR-15 family of rifles. Our part number for the A2 Grip is the C9.
 These grips are now available in Black (MSRP $6.00), Coyote Brown and Green (MSRP $10.00). You will be able to purchase them from all participating dealers. I imagine those who stock them will chime in shortly... The great thing about this is it effectively reduces the cost of converting to a different color furniture set by $20.00 or so as the only grips previously available in Coyote Brown were more elaborate and retailed at a higher price. |

So does this mean that tan is officially dead?

We haven't produced tan parts in over 2 years. The coyote Brown out sold the Desert Tan in it's first 6 months of production, compared to the 3 years the Desert Tan was available. We donated all our remaining Desert Tan furniture in stock to various military units from from 2004-2005. If a distributor wants more desert tan furniture, we can make it, but they will need to order 500 pieces. |

OK- thanks. I was just asking for curiosity's sake. That, and I have some tan furniture. Will it now be "rare and collectible?" |

What is the difference between Coyote Brown and tan? Is that the new tactical name for tan?

Tan was the light color tan off of the military's Desert Combat Uniforms. Coyote Brown is a darker color we have been selling since April of 2003.  Tan *DISCONTINUED*  Coyote Brown current production |

Excellent, I have three rifles with your furniture that still have black grips because I hate the Ergo.

Right, so whats the difference between coyote brown and "dark flat earth" or whatever they're calling it?

 The handguard on the left and the buttstock on the right are from CavArms and they are "coyote brown". The TangoDown Battle grip next to the Cav handguard is "Flat Dark Earth". They are exactly the same color. The other stocks in the pic are the older "tan", which has been discontinued by both TangoDown and VLTOR in favor of Flat Dark Earth, which is a SOCOM milspec color. In the next pic below we have three companies' products; all colors match: TangoDown and VLTOR in the new "Flat Dark Earth" and CavArms "coyote brown".  The newest SOCOM color is Ranger Green, and both VLTOR and TangoDown are switching to this color. The old green color they used before (based on the KAC green used on rail covers) is being discontinued in favor of the milspec Ranger Green.  The pistol grip on this rifle is the new Ranger Green, and the other stocks are the older green which is on the way out. I hope CavArms follows suite and switches to Ranger Green. |

We will continue to sell Olive Drab green, as first made by Armalite, then Rock River Arms. All our green parts were made to match this color. Our OEM clients prefer this color of green, and it matches the vast majority of other green parts out there. If a distributor would like us to manufacture parts in SOCOM Ranger Green, we could do it, as long as they order a minimum of 500 pieces. |

Is there a set of ladder rail covers (anyones) that match your new grip?

Ergo Grip/Falcon covers match, and the tango down rail covers are close to identical. |
