Bought a couple Magpul accessories for my Stag Arms Model 3, all in FDE. The Magpul stocks are kinda expensive plus most models are currently sold out in FDE. Took a chance with a shade of Brownells spray paint called Aluma-Hyde 2 in Coyote. This is an epoxy based paint if I am correct and once fully cured is pretty darn tough. Here is the result. It's just a tag lighter but at first glance will pass as FDE. Anybody have a better match let me know. (The grip is a Magpul in FDE.)
