I bought an FDE B5 SOPMOD stock not knowing quite how light they were and I'm trying to darken it up, I've never used RIT dye before so I'm in need of some help.


Can anyone give me some tips on making it look more like the LMT FDE?

Thanks.


B5 on the left, LMT on the right.

I just used taupe Rit dye on a sample and it turned the part OD green.

I think its kind of trial and error with it. Hopefully you have an OD rifle. I'm about to try to dye some sand colored PMags yellow.

I don't.

I dropped it back in just to see what happens. Its a very dark green now with just a touch of brown to it. I figure I can always buy some black Rit dye.

Maybe you should dye those mags orange.
