Do you have a build that's a mash-up of inspiration from multiple clones?
Did you mash up a bunch of parts from your bin that might have been used in the wild?
This is the thread for you.

If it's in the wild or made by a known military supplier (KAC, DD, G, etc.) game on.  
Optics, go crazy.  The reality is strike eagles are being used downrange, there's no clone police here.

For those with absolute purist clones, post them, but please don't shit on the guys just having fun slapping things together.

Post pictures, talk about parts, have fun.

I love this camo pattern and would like to attempt it on one of my M4s.  

Which brand(s) and colors did you use and did you use a template, stencil, or tape for the organic camo lines/patterns? Or just spray carefully? The blending looks great, wondering about  your technique. Thanks.

That one was Rustoleum Sand and Aervoe coyote is the dark brown highlights. I tear some card board for the uneven edge and spray. The quicker and dirtier the better. Our snipers painted rifles and it was quick and hasty they looked great especially the M110 7.62
This was rustoleum Kahki as base and rustoleum sand aervoe coyote highlights

Ah, torn cardboard for the uneven edges - thanks!

I think I’ve got the quick and dirty part down. Here’s one I rattled a week or two ago.



ETA: your M4 looks bad ass - love it!

I’ll probably attempt something like your pattern on my next one, but with the same two colors I used in the pic above. Rustoleum sand and earth brown.

This is now my favorite pic thread on ARFCOM. I've scrolled through a bunch of pages but haven't found what I'm looking for.

Does anyone have pictures of an A2 upper, FSB with a KAC MRE rail? I've got this bushmaster HBAR barrel I'm trying to figure out what to do with.

Can anyone tell me what the name of the M4 buttstock that was around in early GWOT days that looks similar to a waffle stock but has a weird hang down section that maybe was used to raise the rifle up on your cheek? Maybe used while wearing a plate carrier? I only ask because there is one in a old junk store near by and I was wondering if I should snag it for next to nothing. Are they rare?

This? If so, CAA. No idea if they're rare but I've always viewed CAA stuff as junk.

I’ve yet to try it but I’ve wondered how well it’d work as a rear monopod or clubfoot. Still ugly as hell but might have some utility on a Mk12 or similar build.

I have sourced an A2 upper and car stock, have a barrel I need to get cut down to 14.5.

The big dilemma now is to get a KAC MRE or a DD RIS II....

Either way I'm probably going to start looking for a PEQ 2 surfboard to put on it.
