VLTOR AR STOCKS????

VLTOR AR STOCKS???? - 03/09/11 11:44 PM

I am looking at makeing my AR build a green and black combo. I noticed that the Vltor stocks are "Foliage green" while most others are "OD green".

So my question is this........How much different is the Voltor Foliage green than the OD green??? Are they so different that it is obvious?

I have never looked that closely so can't tell you. Do a google search and hit images. I love there stocks though, have them on three AR's. Like them better than Magpul in fact. Love the club foot model, its awesome for shooting prone too.

Thanks.

I found a few pics with the Vltor Foliage green stock with OD green Magpul P-mags and the color looks like a perfect match. I saw some reports that it was more of a grey-green but it looks just like the OD Pmags to me.

Here are the pics I found if anyone else is curious about the color match.

Great pics! Thanks!

I had no idea that Magpul even made both greens. I guess I am just going to have to see the Vltor in person before I decide thats the route I want to go. Sure wish they made the stock in OD green and then I wouldnt have to even ask this question.

Here is another example I found.

The stock is OD green
The grip is Foliage green
The magazine is Desert Tan

Looks like the Foliage green and OD green wont work together to well now.

It's next to impossible to get a GOOD idea of colors off the internet. Try to find 1 in person & take 1 of your OD Pmags w/ya to see the match. Also, I've noticed 1 companies OD is different than another co.'s OD.

Sometimes a certain color from one company doesn't perfectly match the same from another company.

Thats what I have found out. I always thought they were the same color just different names but after lookin at some pics I know there is a difference now.

I agree.
I prefer the Vltor' stocks over the magpuls, quality and strength goes to Vltor.
