Battle Arms Dev Posted March 12, 2013 Report Posted March 12, 2013 (edited) Guys, please give me your honest opinion. As you know, FDE comes in several shades, Vltor, Tangodown, and Magpul are not all the same. There's a bad review on Brownells where the customer complained that the color didn't match up (he has Magpul furniture), it's impossible to match everyone's FDE. Does our FDE match up pretty well with Tangodown, DD and Vltor's FDE? The FDE selector is the 4th item down http://www.brownells.com/rifle-parts/receiver-amp-action-parts/safety-parts/safeties/ar-15-m16-ambidextrous-safety-selector-prod41292.aspx Edited March 12, 2013 by Battle Arms Dev
imschur Posted March 12, 2013 Author Report Posted March 12, 2013 Mine looks like a near perfect match for Magpul. Pictures to follow. Anyone else who can post the same at Brownells should. I wonder what the history of that part is. Did he buy it new or from someone else? Was it painted? Airsoft knockoff? etc
Battle Arms Dev Posted March 12, 2013 Report Posted March 12, 2013 Ernie Brae coated the FDE for us for years, the demand was such he could not coat them fast enough. We're having Joey at War Sport Inc. coat the FDE as well, these are slightly darker, but definitely not brown :( As to the customer's statement that it was coated too thick, this can happen on receivers whose selector holes are undersized, they're more sensitive to coated parts.
imschur Posted March 12, 2013 Author Report Posted March 12, 2013 Hey Interestingly Magpul FDE does not match Magpul. Here's my 45 AR15 with a CASS. Ill take closeups and put them on Brownells
Battle Arms Dev Posted March 12, 2013 Report Posted March 12, 2013 The lighter FDE lever on left, the slightly darker FDE selector on right. Almost impossible to tell the difference..
Robocop1051 Posted March 12, 2013 Report Posted March 12, 2013 We're having Joey at War Sport Inc. coat the FDE as well, these are slightly darker, but definitely not brown :( You have contacts at War Sport?!?!? You know I'm going to start pickin on you about insider info for that LVOA
Battle Arms Dev Posted March 13, 2013 Report Posted March 13, 2013 Joey is the boss man over there, I don't have any inside info though. Do ya need anything from War Sport? I can see if I can pull some strings for you ;)
Robocop1051 Posted March 13, 2013 Report Posted March 13, 2013 I would fight a rabid gorilla (kinda like Tom, but with less grey hair) to get one of those LVOA-SBR handguards or uppers. I'll email you tonight.
Battle Arms Dev Posted March 13, 2013 Report Posted March 13, 2013 (edited) I'll email Joey now to see what he can do :) Do you need the complete upper with barrel and hanguard, I don't think they sell just the handguard itself.. Edited March 13, 2013 by Battle Arms Dev
98Z5V Posted March 13, 2013 Report Posted March 13, 2013 I would fight a rabid gorilla (kinda like Tom, but with less grey hair) to get one of those LVOA-SBR handguards or uppers. I'll email you tonight. You are just wrong, dude. :blink: I'm kind, and gentle. Really. :D
MONTANA308 Posted March 13, 2013 Report Posted March 13, 2013 Installed mine on my build love it. Since I have such I soft spot for FDE . I thought it matched my FDE PRS sock perfectly. Great safety love how it feels and how I can run it with my thumb and trigger fringer. All of my rifles will have them GUARANTEED. Keep up the great work.
EasyEJL Posted March 13, 2013 Report Posted March 13, 2013 I've got my set (in just black) to mount on the FDE lower, but I figure i'll wait till they are installed till I leave up a review :)
Battle Arms Dev Posted March 13, 2013 Report Posted March 13, 2013 Thanks guys! Montana308, when did you get yours? If it's in the last month or so, it's the slightly darker FDE. If so, do you mind posting a review on Brownell's, it's the fourth item fromt the top :) http://www.brownells.com/rifle-parts/receiver-amp-action-parts/safety-parts/safeties/ar-15-m16-ambidextrous-safety-selector-prod41292.aspx
MONTANA308 Posted March 13, 2013 Report Posted March 13, 2013 Got it in January I believe. Ya will write a review for sure love the safety.
imschur Posted March 13, 2013 Author Report Posted March 13, 2013 Hey guys we should not dillute the purpose of this thread. Why dont you start some new topics for the new stuff thats entering the conversation.
Battle Arms Dev Posted March 14, 2013 Report Posted March 14, 2013 Gents, thank you for your reviews! We do rely on your support a great deal. We would never abuse it and use it as a tool to stifle dissentions and cover up negative reviews. The two negative reviews (one for the 90 degree BAD-ASS, the other for the FDE BAD-ASS) were rather uncalled for and unjustified, one might say that with so many 5 star reviews we could afford to lose one here or there, but as with our products, we strive for perfection, and we aim to uphold our reputation on quality, as well as customer service :)
imschur Posted May 21, 2013 Author Report Posted May 21, 2013 Come on guys show your love to Battle Arms at Brownells
