Mocking up the Gremlin with the in-hand parts (and a stand-in A2 grip) to get a feel for overall size.

See why I call it a "nasty, evil little green thing"? Don't worry, as soon as I finish getting it milled and drilled that nasty lime-green lower is going to be spending some quality time with my trusty can of Rustoleum Olive Drab... and maybe some red and white enamel to fill the selector markings. (After the Phase 2 lower arrives, further burial planned under a coat of either DeWalt Yellow or Makita Teal...)

Nice, Brian! The Gremlin's also a Mk. 18-inspired upper on the build-sheet... a little bit EOD Mod 0 (the FSB configuration and CASV), a little bit Mod 1 (the 10.3" barrel when it's done).

Now if I could just get some help from Magpul about what dyes they used and how they masked it to make the Bacon Pmag...

I asked Magpul Tech Support, all I could get was that they dyed it. Wouldn't tell me anything about masking or even what colors they used.

Stick, were you in on that one, and if so do you think you might be able to dig a little more out for us?

WARNING, beware of these guys and their seemingly killer "deals" on bulk-pack mags! I got popped by their security breach WELL after they claimed "Fixed," Qualys SSL Labs SSL testing STILL indicates their site is Bent Over With Ankles Grabbed, I reported this and they summarily closed my Support ticket without even acknowledging it, so that suggests to me that they're either incompetent, in denial or in on it. Any one of those possibilities is enough for a black-ball from me...

Comparing the two images, it looks like the colors are Flame and Harvest, but I'm no good with colors unless it involves the FS 595C catalog. Anybody out there with better eyes have a take in this?

Also, to the Mods, if it should be decided that this little tangent is too far out of bounds to tolerate for this thread, would you please move it to a new one rather than just deleting?

Diamondback, nope, nothing to do with it at all, but if you were surrounded by millions of magazines I'll bet you could come up with some cool stuff yourself!
