Chrome or Colour?

[ex9066]

Hello all.

this is my new Mag, I've cut away parts of the sight (maybe a bit too small...), filed the body rail, and well, this is the result.



Problem is this, I am about to anodise the sight, body and front grip. But what colour? Or should I leave it all shiny and silver (knowing that anodised alu will not be true chrome.

The colours I had in mind were either purple, red or blue..

Any ideas? I would also anodise the frame but it's nickle plated and I'm not sure how to remove it without the proper equipment.....

And one last thing, which setup looks nicer? This has a different grip and larger sight...




Note: Thanks tombraider68 for the 32 Deg frame....

First of all, Welcome to AO!

I actually like the silver that you've got there already. I like the second sight rail with the first foregrip, though.

yes, welcome.

i noticed you said that you were going to annodize the body, were you talking about the body rail, or just the body? i know that annodizing SS(body) reacts violently which is the metal disintegrating.

as for color, i would say red, and agree with capoeira's gun setup.

Yeah, I meant the body rail....

Red's a nice colour, but would it go well with a chrome grip frame and body?

Does anyone have any examples of anodising they can put up on here?
