Hey everyone I am trying to replicate the look of the above rifle on my AR. If anyone can help ID the butt stock, pistol grip, and gas block sight it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you! :)

If you use Google and search for OD green M4 buttstock and similar you will find that most of them are made by mediocre manufacturers with the exception of manufacturers like Magpul, Vltor, Tango Down, etc...

You best bet is to get standard quality stuff and buy some OD green paint.

Looks suspiciously like crapco. Just buy some rattle can and make your own.

As for a gas block folding front sight, look this one over:

Check out Armalite for OD green stock and pistol grip.

That looks excellent Jessfest. What paint did you use? I was thinking about getting some Krylon paint. Also, thank you everyone for the input!

Thanks man!

Here's the paint I used:

The color is more foliage green than OD green if that's what you want. If you use this paint you'll wanna scuff all your plastic stuff up with maybe 400 grit sandpaper, use some adhesion promoter and/or primer designed for plastics (easily found at an auto parts store). Mine is starting to flake off a bit.

In retrospect, I probably should have looked around for this stuff:

They claim you don't need to prime or sand at all before painting plastic... I'd still scuff it up a little just to be safe.

Whatever you use; clean everything thoroughly with alcohol and spray in several light coats rather than 2 or 3 heavy coats to help prevent chipping.

Good luck! :D

This isn't exactly a configuration that many would like to replicate, more likely change and update over replicate. Might we ask "what is the point of this exercise?"

Cav Arms also sells the OD stock set.

I have their OD handguards and they match Magpuls OD green almost perfectly in case anyone was wondering.

I can't speak for Mr. J.Hung, but I sprayed my stock and grip down with some green paint I had lying around 'cause I was bored one weekend... No real point on my end.
Later, when funds are more readily available, my stock and/or pistol grip may indeed be updated, among other things.
I am quite happy with my BCM factory furniture... as it is still perfectly functional.
