I used Krylon Ultra-Flat 4293 Olive for my Noveske build lower and a couple of other parts.
Great color selection.
Smooth application.
Excellent coverage.
Holds up fairly well.
I do have some wear showing after 4 years, but it's minimal.
I figure the Cerakote I had done on...
Monkied around with each of these for a short while.
Not necessarily as a joke but on a lark, just to see what they were about.

They (the V7 ambi safety) are a bit aggressive in their tactile surface.
Switching to FIRE with my thumb doesn't bother me but setting to SAFE with my index finger first knuckle initially took some getting used to- Like guitar players having to build callouses on their finger tips before they...

Auralex and/or other foamy treatments are actually designed to reduce reflections i.e. sound bouncing off hard surfaces.
That typically only affects the mid to high frequencies and doesn't lower volume.
Low end absorption is exceptionally more challenging to control. Usually mass is the answer-...
Look into the way recording studios deal with sound dampening/absorption.
The decibel level of firearms is far louder than what a studio would be dealing with but the principles are the same.
Mitigation of the HF is the easiest to accomplish.
No parallel surfaces. Absorptive material to...
Installed an Armaspec Fulcrum ambi safety in the Colt.
Very smooth operation. Comfortable levers. I'm diggin' it and the GF loves it compared to the V7 ambi that was installed.
