Out of curiosity, does anyone know of any paints that match well on the AR's and hold to the finish? One of my Uppers has a small chip around the sight pin...and it is annoying me.

Any help would make me grateful. smile.gif

Birchwood Casey also makes Aluma-Black that works great. I've used to with excellent results. Works like bluing, but for aluminum, and the result is black that matches AR finishes.
