Ok, I have a HiPolish RTPro, but I just saw a Black RT at a proshop the other day. Here's my question. The Site rail and foregrip bracket on the Polished RT are Brushed Aluminum. On the black RT they're black. On a Polished RTPro they're Aluminum. But on a black RTPro they're still Aluminum. What gives? Anyone got some black ones laying around they'll trade my Aluminum ones for? Does AGD have any in stock that I can buy? I think that the black ones would look pretty swanky on my marker.

It would probably be cheaper to have them powdercoated by someone like RedRyder. If you want PURPLE, here is a set on EBAY !!!

Well, the powdercoated ones have more of a shinyness to them. The stock ones are a matte black so I'd prefer those. :D

Up again.

Does anyone have a black RT with the black rail and foregrip bracket?

i am not 100% sure on this, but I thought the black ones on the RT are aluminum, and on my RT Pro, they are Stainless Steel, not aluminum like the RT. Therefore, SS doesnt accept the color like aluminum does.

Hmm.... I'm not sure if my RTPro has Al. or SS, but I sure want black ones. I emailed [email protected] about it. Maybe they have some laying around somewhere.
