Here is an FDE frame that was rit dyed blue with a color changing blue barrel to match. The cool thing is that the barrel also has a tinge of green, so I also rit dyed the FDE magazine and it came out damn near the same color green as the barrel haha.
It was a fun project. I have the video of me rit dying the frame on my YouTube channel "DLD After Dark".
When I'm not constantly being banned and given channel strikes you can catch me doing live shows every tues, thurs, and sat. 😉
I will say though.... the one thing that I would do differently is to do the conversion BEFORE I rit dyed it. Because if you drill, remove tabs, and the channel after it's been rit dyed you can see the FDE inside the polymer. It actually makes the holes look messy and makes it look like there's flashing n shit around the pin holes even though they're totally clean. It's just that little bit of FDE showing through that makes it look like that.
