I've seen comments / descriptions of KAC Taupe front sights being both anodized tan and also painted (I assume with Cerakote).
Are both clone correct? Thanks |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Dyzastr: That'd be cool. I swear I can see the flutes and everything. Must be from low resolution. That and the "silver latch" being in an odd spot (towards the bottom) led me to think it was aac. The latch is always on top with a kac. But then again, with the resolution it could be anything.

Got a pri gas buster again. Idk how many different ones I’ve owned, I need to stop selling them because I ultimately end up right back where I started.
Also, thanks to @eyekahn for the old school bushmaster car15 stock. I know, it’s not colt or b5, but you could never tell just from looking. Anyone else use a boonie packer redi catch?  Attached File Attached FileI love this old colt bcg.  Attached File |
