Alright guys, here is a quick side by side video so you can see the difference in colors and accessories. I’m pretty sure I list all of the differences but just in case I’m going to go ahead and list them here. We have different size backstraps on the MIAD grip kit, the FDE has the Medium and the ODG has the Large. The FDE has the enhanced trigger guard whereas the OD Green doesn’t. The Flat Dark Earth has the Magpul BAD Lever and the OD Green doesn’t. The Flat Dark Earth has the EOTech 551 N Type battery whereas the OD Green has the EOTech 512 AA battery. The Flat Dark Earth has Traction tape cut for the PMAG whereas the OD Green doesn’t. The Flat Dark Earth has a Yankee Hill Machine free float quad rail in the Specter length where as the OD Green has a Mil-Spec, none free float quad rail. The Flat Dark Earth has Tapco’s the low profile vertical grip and the OD Green has Tapco’s full size grip. The Flat Dark Earth has a Daniel Defense QD Swing Swivel mount whereas the OD Green uses the sling mount located on the stock front A2 sight. Onto sights, the Flat Dark Earth has Magpul’s MBUS back up front sight whereas the OD Green has the stock front sight. Also the Flat Dark Earth has the Latter Rail cover on top whereas the OD Green has nothing but Magpul’s XTM Rail covers. So this video is just to show you different options side by side so you can decide what you like better if you’re thinking about buying any of these accessories.

@D3mOn4teR Check out the Specter Length Quad Rail on Yankee Hill Machines website to see the products specs.
how long are youre free float rails for the bottom rifle?
od green all the way..ima dura coat my lower and upper in od green
@STIAu72 I believe that is the Tapco Stubby Vertical Grip. I love it, I find the full size VG’s to be too large. I uses my stubby VG just as a point of reference to keep my hand placement consistent on my rail.
What kind of quad rail do you have on FDE AR? Looking to do the same to my AR opting for the longer vertical grip.
How did you take off the front gas block for your fde ar 15?
Damn man I wish I woulda watched this before I ordered my Tapco vertical grip. I just ordered the full sized one yesterday and I like the look of the low profile one better
@Marinefreak90 It is one of the easiest parts to install. It will take you all of 5 minutes.
@MustyYetisTacticalHQ that something ill easily look into getting, is it a pain to install?
@Marinefreak90 The Magpul BAD allows you to control your bolt without taking your hand off fire control. What that means is, with your hand still on the grip, you can lock the bolt open if you want or send it forward. It’s a really nice piece that makes manipulating your gun that much easier.
great video thank you for this always was curious how they would look back to back, btw do you could tell me what the magpul bad lever does because ive read things but i still have no idea the benefits of having it maybe you can help me out?
amazing but the od green is too dark is there a brighter green color?
@Berion189 I didn’t take out my sights, I paid a gunsmith to do it for me. He charged me, something like, 20 dollars. It requires some specialty tools that I don’t own so the 20 was well worth it.
How did you take out the front sights? In your previous video you had stock front sights and mentioned you would be taking ‘em out as they interfered with your Eotech. Would’ve loved to have seen you post that video as you took them out.
