Re: Have I lost my mind?
I ordered a couple complete uppers with lower parts kits and stocks/grips - just add stripped lowers! One for a buddy as a present for his wife, the other for me to make into a shop or truck gun. Lots of miscellaneous stuff here and there: AR-15 & AR-308 reaction rods, Seekins bolt catch, M-Lok rail covers, Buckmark mags, and a bunch of parts to build my brother-in-law a lower for Christmas.

Also not a lower
They don't seem to carry Aero lowers at all just skimming through the website.

This is BS. Son of a #@$^&*
Have you ever tried to match up FDE parts from different companies?
Every *#%@ of them used a different shade.
Mission First Tactical BMS Stock , light in color
Aero FDE is slightly darker then Magpul
UTG buffer tube is a little darker then Aero
Strike Industries is lighter then Magpul but darker then Mission First Tactical
If I had hair I would be pulling it out.
Now I have to buy more stuff to get matching colors.

The fine folks at Krylon have an app for that.

Re: Have I lost my mind?
I prefer to think of the mismatch as a "disruptive" pattern.
Kind of like how Navy aircraft on deployment end up being an assortment of greys because of weathering, repairs, re-paints, oils, smudges, etc.

Different shades make it look more like you like you chose the parts rather than just buying a set.

Yep.
It's not mismatched.
It's custom camo.

Re: Have I lost my mind?
Woo! Hoo! The last week has been like Christmas!!! The packages just keep coming. The biggest Item to show up this weekend was a PSA MOE rifle kit.
I have been a little embarrassed about my gun parts spending addiction so, I have not listed my last few orders. I think I will have packages showing up after Christmas.
To help fight my Gun Parts addiction I have started buying ammo. I picked up 1000 rounds of Winchester 22lr for $98 on Friday and ordered a box of 455 Webley today. I only ordered one box because that was all they had.
