Moriquende Posted March 21, 2009 Report Share Posted March 21, 2009 (edited) Eh, how is that more realistic? Just looks like somebody gave a five year old an AR and a bottle of gun oil. Edited March 21, 2009 by Moriquende Link to post Share on other sites
Yuri Posted March 21, 2009 Report Share Posted March 21, 2009 Are real M4's oiled though? I don't see a reason to oil an aluminium receiver. Link to post Share on other sites
0nslaught Posted March 22, 2009 Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 Are real M4's oiled though? I don't see a reason to oil an aluminium receiver. Nope.. lol is that gun oil supposed to be put on receivers? isnt gun oil put into the gun? and tbh that shiny finish doesnt look realistic at all... Link to post Share on other sites
beanns2 Posted March 22, 2009 Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 There is really no need to put gun oil on the out side... especially in large amounts. Besides AR receivers are aluminum anyways. Some guns dont even need a lot of oil on the moving parts in the first place. It just collects dirt. Link to post Share on other sites
Panoptes Posted March 22, 2009 Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 Looks awful. Please dry that poor thing. Link to post Share on other sites
Lerch Posted March 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 (edited) ...you guys don't CLP the whole thing? Hmm...so the rust that forms on the outside must be fake... Edited March 22, 2009 by Lerch Link to post Share on other sites
pforcerecon Posted March 22, 2009 Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 The rust is from years of being exposed to the elements and whether or not its properly taken care of. No one lube's an entire M4 like that, especially on the outside! Lubing is only necessary on the inside on certain moving parts, the necessities. That just looks nowhere near like a real M4, sorry man. Link to post Share on other sites
SgtBojangles Posted March 22, 2009 Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 (edited) Uhh, CLP is a cleaning agent, too... I have CLP on my AR15's receiver, but that's because I lube the crap out of it before I shoot it. I don't grease up the exterior purposely... Plus is turns the foam in my weapon case funny colors. And it stinks... (tastes weird, as well - don't fire weapons with your mouth open). EDIT - I would have to say that it looks real in some respects. As I said above, sometimes CLP ends up on the exterior of my rifle, but it doesn't cover the entire receiver. EDIT2 - He also said it gives it a darker finish. It looks darker, but I'm sure it sucks on your clothes... Edited March 22, 2009 by SgtBojangles Link to post Share on other sites

IBICO Posted March 22, 2009 Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 (edited) aaalright.. I guess I need to be a bit more clear about things. The TOP picture is where I added oil.. The BOTTOM picture is where I have started to polish it. It give a more BLACK color instead of the WE GREY I don`t do this all the time either, but when doing this with a polish and dry it give a more black color when taking photos. The more black color give it a more real look. I can`t remember seen any real AR looking grey or blue (unless you talk about some old vietnam type or something) Edited March 22, 2009 by IBICO Link to post Share on other sites
Spartan452 Posted March 22, 2009 Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 Don't worry about them IBICO, I actually like the black finish... I wish my reciever was blacker since the grey doesn't really match the flat black on the URX rail =( Link to post Share on other sites
Azulsky Posted March 22, 2009 Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 But leaving your gun permanently greased like that on the outside is just....... Have you considered investing in high quality paintjobs? Link to post Share on other sites
IBICO Posted March 22, 2009 Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 (edited) But leaving your gun permanently greased like that on the outside is just....... Have you considered investing in high quality paintjobs? UGH.. paint??.. you crazy? The differ between your average aeg and WE/WA(prime body) is that the body is anodized (Not all version of WE is anodized) . Not PAINTED.. like the aeg. So the metal actually take the oil inside somehow. Because next day when I start rubbing the body with my fingers to get that black finish I want. The metal is not sticky with oil anymore. Just not super dry like stock and with a more black finish. This works on the WE anodized version and WA prime body.. Did not work so good on the PTW lower receiver, but did on the RS upper receiver. The upper part is not had oil.. the lower is almost done and pretty dry now after rubbing it after the second day. Edited March 22, 2009 by IBICO Link to post Share on other sites
Moriquende Posted March 22, 2009 Report Share Posted March 22, 2009 Are real M4's oiled though? I don't see a reason to oil an aluminium receiver. The only firearms that need to be oiled on the outside are those that are in the white(bare steel). Link to post Share on other sites

Skipper Posted March 23, 2009 Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 Hey all, Has anyone tried one of these FAB Tactical T-Grips? Not sure if I should go for one of those to mount my G2 on my rail system or a more conventional ring mount (probably Viking Tactical) and standard vertical grip. Any advise welcome Link to post Share on other sites
