i've just spent a hell of alot of time at various wholesalers tracking down several things for several people.
i noticed something at one place and kept checking it out at the others and i've come to the same conclusion that many others have before me. most of yall don't think your tier 1 badass best of everything ultra awesome rifle will work with a magazine that doesn't match the rest of the rifle, do you? 4000 FDE in stock and 0 black pmags. you guys better start building more FDE guns! and you've probably given your wives shit about matching shoes with an outfit, haven't you? if you're that worried about it, spraypaint works too guys |
|
Oh jeez... this is going to devolve like the tactical gear dressup thread, isn't it?
|
|
just an observation
all the, "OMG mag bans are coming and everybody is running out of stock!!!!" but yet there's still a bajillion magazines out there that evidently just aren't the right color for all their rifles |

Black polymer is stronger than colored. I thought everyone knew that.
We're going to spraypaint it all anyhow... |
|
Do I insist on proper color coordination on my ARs?
You're fuckin' A right I do. (I did spray paint an FDE Magpul MIAD black once, when all I could find in stock was FDE. It now serves as the grip on my 6920). |

Can you please find me a leopard print Hipoint carbine? Oh, I thought you wanted a rhinestone one. My bad. |

LMAO, that's the reason I buy FDE mags in the first place. All the guys I shoot with want black Pmags, so when we get done on the line I can easily find my FDE ones.
PM me the link who has 4000 FDE ones, been looking for some. |

I never did understand that color coordinated shit.
Seems gay as hell unless you're fighting in the desert. I'm sure all of the wannabes have their shit matched. |

Just order windowed pmags... the same place has almost 10000 of those.

I can buy whatever color accessory I can find since I got one of those Scar 16s that came pre-camoed (supposed to be FDE, FNH can't color match for shit)

For some with safe queens, their rifles are more of a Barbie collection than a tool. It is all about the accessories...take a 6 pound carbine, add 5 pounds of sights, lights, optics, rails, handles and even a compass in the stock with a sundial.

I buy what's in stock. I could care less about what color my Pmags are on my AR. Currently I believe I have ample Black,FDE,and some green ones. I slap one in and off to the horse races we go.

I usually buy black or silver USGI mags. Pmags of any color are for sissyboys!

FDE is the new black? Ok, I'll be the noob here. What is FDE? I use USGIs with green followers. |

It's not that they have to match my rifle,,,it's that I have a black purse.

I thought we were going Coyote this season
If MagPul could showcase their colors on a weekly OLN show, say "American Magpul" we could vote by text and fix the whole off-trend overstock problem. FDE? WTF? That's sooo 2010. |
|
Sorry bro, but PMAGs are so last year. This years mag is the new Lancer with the steel feed lips insert. We are only about 12 weeks from the first post proclaiming that anything else will get you killed.

I own probably the ugliest AR on arfcom, by the fact that it's just plain black.

And yea, I will stick one in my carbine with gasp FDE furniture, and the one with OD green furniture. I am sure I am the source of much laughter at the range |

Umm............I have green, brown and black, and when I want one I just grab one

This tread proves it: The AR-15 has become the Barbie toy for metrosexuals.

"Evil Flat Dark Earth Rifle" just doesn't have the same ring as "Evil Black Rifle"
