Wasn't sure where to post this. I'm looking for some spray paint that is a close match to the Magpul FDE color. Hopefully Krylon or Rustoleum or something I can pick up at Home Depot or Walmart. I know Bowers has the Brownells Alumahyde but don't feel like making the 35 mile drive just to pick up a can.

Thanks.

Ray I've used the FDE one and it is a little lighter than the Magpul stuff but it it close. The HD my me does not carry it but the Walmart does. YMMV

This is not my pic just one I grabbed off the interwebz

Thanks. I'll check that out. It's going to be used to paint a scope so if it isn't an exact match to the rifle it won't bother me. As long as it's close.

If you decide to get the Brownell's-their Coyote is a close match to FDE.

Thanks. I'll see what Walmart has first. Might have to make a run down to Bowers if I go the Alumahyde route.

Rustoleum "khaki" isn't too far off.
