Just because you have a Stag upper & Stag lower doesn't mean the colors will match. The odds that a separate Stag lower & upper came from the same anodization lot may be low. Heck, even receivers that were anodized in the same batch could vary in color.  To each his own I guess.

Colors on diffewrent batches of anodising are hardly ever the same; even with the same chemicals in the same tanks.

You want to get a good color match?  Take the piece you have to a gun show, and look for the closest other side you can find.
