I'd love to get my 7.62 tAR bronzed when it arrives. But I don't have anything to show yet. Google images came up with several results.

I disagree.
I painted my PredatAR 7.62 I figure if I get tired of the color it's not that hard to remove.

Is it the TM-14?

The angle of the pic makes it look impossible for that mount to fit behind the scope where it is located on the rail... but Ive been wrong before.

I just looked on their site and can't find it. It is a mount that has 7 different adapters for the ocular end and mounts the 14 behind the scope.

When my tOBR gets here it is going off to get the dark bronze treatment.  Did my 870 in that color and love it.

I'm not sure what color that is, can you post a pic of your 870?

I'm contemplating either painting the OBR or having it dipped in one of the ATACS.  But blacks starting to grow on me.
