Which color AFG?

Fixing to order a Magpul AFG for my SIG 516, however I am having trouble deciding which color to order. The furniture is OD Green, and the rest of the rifle is... wait for it... black! Soooo should I go OD Green or black?

Here is a pic for reference...

Funny you should say that, I saw a youtube vid where this guy felt the same, however he mounted it with about a 3rd of it past the end of the rail and he really liked it...

OD Green, especially if you have the rail covers pictured above.

I have my DD/Spike's carbine AR decked out in FDE therefore I purchased the AFG in FDE.... Now, I have an extended Daniel Defense quad rail on my build that extends the rail just past the FSB and I have to extend the AFG as far as I can possibly get it (which is directly under my FSB) before it remotely feels right. any closer and it sort of feels awkward in my opinion.
With that said, I have decided to remove it all together and put a regular grip on it and save the AFG for another possible mid length build where I can use a low profile gas block and utilize a much longer free float quad rail...

But... to answer your question...I would personally go with the OD but either will work what ever you decide to go with.
