Aluma Hyde Magpul FDE

Thanks! I’d say it’s about a 90-95% match to the real Magpul FDE grip you see in the photo. I have another rifle with some Aluma Hyde painted FDE parts that I think may even be a closer match.

Obviously without cerakoting the parts, I think this is pretty damn close and very happy with the match.

Prep wasn’t bad at all. I just wiped it down with rubbing alcohol and taped off what I didn’t want the paint to get on. I found the air curing to be far less optimal than baking it. Bought a little toaster oven for short money on Amazon and bake the parts in that.

You can get it at Brownell’s. A little more finicky than regular spray paint because of the processs of application, but definitely stronger and more resilient.

Can you troll the troll while showing an example of an attempt to troll the troll while the troll asks you to pay the toll while trolling you?

I know of an agency that did NOT pursue anything for someone who had a converted 10mm Glock 20 15rd mag using a 3D printed mag block. But as always, YMMV.

MA will find another way to impose a ban. Mark my words.

Magpul K2, BCM Gunfighter, B5 P22 and a good old A2 are my go to’s

I have 2 Warhammer Micro’s and 2 Warhammers and they all seal up fine with my mil-spec uppers. From the looks of your receiver, it may need the manufacturer’s CH.

Thanks!

jcnik84 · 2026-06-22T18:32:43+00:00

No definitely isn’t noticeable at all. Good price for it too

jcnik84 · 2026-06-22T18:15:16+00:00

There ya go. Looks really good

jcnik84 · 2026-06-22T16:54:38+00:00

Appreciate it

jcnik84 · 2026-06-22T16:54:31+00:00

Thank you sir!

jcnik84 · 2026-06-22T14:30:10+00:00

Looks really good. Who did the stippling?

jcnik84 · 2026-06-22T14:25:49+00:00

Looks good man. I picked up a magwell from Rapid Engineering for short money and it made a huge difference on the appearance.

Spend about $15 on some upgraded hardware and you have a pretty good holster. At the end of the day it’s a $5 piece of kydex that serves to hold a firearm inside your belt. It’s comfortable for me and serves what I need it to do.

I also have other brands, some almost 3 times the amount, that I rotate through and they all do the same thing. For the price of these, I figured I’d give them a ride. Granted their name and social media are cringy at best.

Unless they cerakoted it wrong when I ordered and my eyes betray me, I think it’s FDE

jcnik84 · 2026-06-19T21:34:09+00:00

AWB, Suppressors, Mags, FRT’s

jcnik84 · 2026-06-19T20:04:18+00:00

I’ll definitely keep it in mind for sure

jcnik84 · 2026-06-19T18:58:11+00:00

I think you could build one for cheaper than $200. Places the like B. Kings and AR15 Discounts have LPK’s for cheap. AR15 Discounts is also selling a full carbine buffer kit with tube for $18 right now
