And black just plain sticks out in the woods. Now, I have not painted my AR’s (still on the fence there) but have painted my hunting rifles.

Rattle can is a cheap and functional fix if you need to blend in. I like the Rustoleum Camoflage products.
More factory guns and parts are coming in FDE, but with some upcharge. It's a decent base/starter color.
I'd like to see more rifles in a lighter tone of gray, which works well on its own and is easy to accent if you need to blend.

Based on the trend in gear like chest rigs and war belts, grey is the new “urban FDE”.

And yet even if they want to paint their weapon a lighter color they are happy to install metal rails and handguards that get hot enough to make the shooter need gloves.
I don't buy the heat argument.
It's just wanting to make your weapon look badass compared to the sea of plain black AR's.
The two reasons I never would paint a rifle are 1) I’m a civilian and very self conscience looking to “tactical” or .mil. 2) paint jobs only look right if everything is painted...including optics. I can’t bring myself to paint an expensive optic that I may want to sell. And bonus #3, I happen to like how black rifles look.
The only guns I painted were toy m4s I got my kids for their Halloween costume. I left some of the orange on the muzzle to keep them out of trouble.

I'll concede that if you know an extreme ELE SHTF situation is coming (think the movie "The Road" for reference), then, yes, rattle can the damn thing. But most of us will never face a level of survival worse than having to wait in line at McDonalds. There is literally no reason for the average person to camo their AR with amateurish hand spray painting.
