Hey guys I really want to start building my rifle collection as i do have a fear of Hillary Clinton being our next president.
Anyways I was just wondering if all your modern sporting rifles are black (which i think looks cool especially in a group photo.) or if you mix and match with od green and fde? Should all modern sporting rifles be black is the question. I know this is kind of a stupid question just wanted to hear what ar15.com thought... |

Current dedicated rifle and all future acquisitions will have black aluminum bits and fde accessories where appropriate. Old ar/beater rifle still has all black furniture, if I feel adventurous I may cerakote fde in the future..

I like diversity.
Plus, to me some rifles look better with color. For instance, the FN SCAR looks perfect in FDE. |

View Quote The purple is actually my favorite One of the only "good" things about the panic was that people were selling off "fudd" guns dirt cheap to raise cash for their first EBR and case of 30rd mags. |

I live in the Mojave Desert. Black stuff gets hot out in the sun most of the year, so most of my rifles get black furniture swapped out.

Every gun I own, with the exception of one of my buckmarks and my sp101 is either black or blued.

The one good thing about keeping it all one color, is that it makes switching parts easy.
Get every color and a couple bins of extra parts. I'm actually trending back toward simple black these days. |

All of my AR's are painted FDE and brown grass pattern. I hunt with them all the time though. Black is ok but it just doesn't do it for me it sticks out way to much.

Black, OD, stealth gray, probably doing a digital urban tiger stripe camo pattern on a future precision build.

Would you paint this black? http://tacticalgunreview.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Garand-rifle-1024x471.jpg If you would, then you should be banned! View Quote Yes and I would Tapco fuck it too. |

I took a few ARs to a gun show during the last panic. The rifles with OD, FDE, and camo on them sold instantly. The black ones were the last to sell.
