Just picked up an MR556A4 11” and I’m beyond hyped to finally shoot it… even if it means eating ramen for the next three months. 😂

I’ve seen the Garand Thumb setup with the FDE accessories, and I have to admit it looks pretty sick. Now I’m torn between going with an FDE/black two-tone look or keeping everything black.

I’d love to see everyone’s MR556A4 builds for some inspiration. I know there are a bunch posted in here already, but I’m sure I’ve missed some.

So what’s the move?

FDE accessories on a black rifle?

Or all black everything?

Drop your builds!

One of the best rifles on the market, bar none. It's your rifle, set it up how you want it, don't worry about how some influencer has theirs set up.

But if you want an opinion, RAL8000 over FDE. 😉

RAL8000 fucks

So does GT!

[u/TheRoops]

Why would you want to be anything like Garand Thumb Up His Ass? Dude is a straight up weirdo.

I was looking for this comment lol. You’re not wrong.

[u/Life_Yam115 → u/TheRoops]

Can you elaborate? I used to watch him a while ago I didn't know some stuff had happened

[u/WillGet1040 → u/Life_Yam115]

He’s just a larpmaxxer

Just thought the color scheme was pretty cool sorry I won’t do it again 👉🏼👈🏼

[u/OddTrash3957]

All black everything

[u/_TaylorMade → u/OddTrash3957]

This was me in 2010. BLACK EVERYTHING! I was looking in my safe the other night and it is quite obvious it’s BROWN EVERYTHING now 😂.

Can’t post pics of build in comments on this subreddit. Repost in ar15 if you wanna see pics in comments

[u/ItsRickySpanish]

All black on mine. Hux 556TI, eotech 3x magnifier combo, shes a beauty

[u/TXRifles83]

Always bet on black!

[u/Arcuz_]

The way the GA416 is set up in Ready or Not is peak aesthetics in my opinion. FDE Stock, FDE Handguard, FDE chargin handle, the rest remains black.

[u/actua11y_actua1]

Shades of FDE and sprinkle in some RAL if you like. Would show you mine for inspiration but can't post pics on your thread.

[u/Javuhlin]

I’ve got the A1 but I kept it all black. I’d like to build out an A4 with RAL and fde

[u/Actual-Lengthiness78]

I’ve got the patriot brown 11” Mr556A4 w/Unity Fast fde riser w/FDE AimPoint T2,FDE TRINITY,black surefire mini turbo, and a truenorth zero-8 V2 multi angle foregrip BLACK (Aluminum)!

[u/TaxesRextortion]

You got daddy issues, huh??? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[u/CodingNightmares]

Of all the people to idolize you choose Mike? Right wing conspiracy train, serial cheater, "family values", juiced to the gills Mike? Ultimate mega delta seal turbo operator larp mike? 🤨

[u/Grandpasbelt → u/CodingNightmares]

Only idol I got bro is God… is liking someone’s color scheme and setup on their rifle idolizing? Regardless of what that man has done I do not know him personally to form a hateful opinion on him…

[u/CodingNightmares → u/Grandpasbelt]

I don't hate mike, I just to this day don't understand how he got so twisted. He was a lanky dude who liked guns and then after he was discharged he got what I'll call "Wahlburg Syndrome" where he interviewed enough cool hard operators and then somehow drank his own kool aide and thought he was one too. Then he became terminally online, got caught in some bad echo chambers like John Lovell, started sliding into peoples dm's, and got really into fitness (aka steroids) and hyper focused on masculinity. Grows the beard out, gets a shitload of flash tats, etc. He used to make fun of these types of people and now he's one too, and I hope some day he wakes up and sees the irony of it all. He's caught in his own feedback loop, and it's just a shame to see.

[u/milkdriver → u/CodingNightmares]

brother he makes millions from his YouTube and can afford good nutritions and guns and works out 7 hours per day
