what would be the best way to paint it so that paint is removable if its not what I want ? What I have is a MP15 lower , BCM middy upper with standard type hand guards and an ergo grip (both OD) thinking of doing it (the stock) in FDE to sort of give it a cammo look or may cammo the grip,handguards and stock in a cammo scheme

A type of paint called Bowflage is designed to be easily removable.

Krylon will come off relatively easy as well.

Probably Krylon. You have to take the stock off and prep it really well.  Scrub it with a liquid soap and follow up with denatured alcohol and then let it hang dry completely. If Krylon makes an adhesion promoter use that before you hit it with paint. Dust the paint on in several light coats rather than spray it on heavy.

If you want to do another color rinse and repeat. But I submit it would be easier to buy another stock, possibly an upgrade, in the color you want.

Those SW collapsible stocks have got to be a dime a dozen. I think most everyone replaces the stock with something aftermarket. I know my stock has been sitting in the closet since i got my M&P.
I would say don't worry about undoing your paint job since it's likely only a ten dollar part.
If you mess it up you can always just buy another one.

Just get a stock in FDE and slap it on there.  Then, it will be really easy to switch it back, if you don't like it.

ETA>  You can probably dig one up on the EE dirt cheap.
