well all the ones ive seen are gray and everything on my rifle is black so i dont think it would look good.
right now i have a M4 type collapsable stock and that is black but on my 18" rifle with a scope there is no need for the collapsable one as i allways have it extended when i shoot it. It also looks goofy with that stock on there since it has a long free float tube and a bi-pod. i bought the stock first and then went in a different direction with my build.
I am taking that stock off to use on my Short barreled rifle so im going to need a new stock anyways and i might get an ACE stock but i would prefer the A2 stock if i could get it in black

Not to plug my own for sale ad, but this one that I am parting with is black...not the usual grey/dark grey that you commonly see. The pics don't do it justice, but I can take a pic of it next to a standard A2 and you can immediately tell the difference. Let me know if you are interested.

It won't make it black, but spraying a standard A2 stock with a good coat of RemOil and letting it set in darkens it considerably.

Duracoat?

Yeah, they're all grey until you rub some oil into them.

They are black, the surface just gets chalky on them when they're new.

Duracoat?

Crazy as this sounds, it works fine. Bondo for the dings and Krylon Semi-Gloss black spray paint for the black. Acetone it first. Enjoy. HB of CJ

ive used krylon on a gun before. it worked great untill i got some solvent on it.

after that i used some car clear coat over it and that prevented the solvent from damaging the paint.
