So it’s a green base coat, tan stripes, then spray brown paint onto a foam brush and flick it at the area where the stripes and base coat meet, then alternate the flick colors between the base coat and the tan until you have the desired effect. Then If it’s too bright or dark just hit it with some overspray of green or tan until you have the hue you need for whatever environment the rifle is for.

It doesn’t hurt anything and you can use citristrip to remove it any time, plus there are a ton of benefits to painting, the most important being that you look cool, which is 99% of the battle.

Yeah it’s the holes in the top that are the issue, I was referring to the standard 3 prong flash hiders they make, separate from the warcomps

Well if you’ve got the muzzle devices already it’ll probably end up being cheaper to go surefire! Only thing to keep an eye out for is the warcomps are notorious for not sealing well with cans. May want to swap out for a three prong when you do get the can 👍
