It could be diff. ya never know. Your goin to shoot this arent you or enter it in a beauty contest? . Its a TOOL. They get banged around and used.  If you want a safe queen get a complete rifle from one manufactor and you ran a better chance of gettin colors to match.

Dark Black.  I just built two.  I love those receivers, MAN!

The finish is not too gritty like Bushy, but it's not slick.  It's just right.

But they're not Gray at all.  I have both of my recent builds on bushy uppers, and they match pretty good colorwise.

WTF, I thought you were a Colt whore?

ETA:  The finish on my Eagle AR-10 lower is quite nice.  Here is a pic:

I have two 3 uppers from J&T, and just got an Eagle Arms lower.  Match is very good, near perfect.  And that is dry. You'll be well pleased.

I got into EAGLE about 8 years ago when S.A.W. used to sell them.  I like to use bushy upper halves for building guns, and I would never put non-COLT parts on a Colt receiver.

I have two COLTS and three Eagles.
