That's the first thing I thought when I saw the 19X. Looks like bad color matching like the SCAR. But I held it in person and ended up buying the 19X anyway. I'm still planning on a black SCAR whenever I decide to go into .308.

Hey, don't take your ball and go home, now. Fun's just starting.

well, see... there's the problem. Silly posts rarely start out actually being silly. Its the super serious posts that usually go full silly.
On that note, the progression from serious, to silly, to full silly, to full retard, can be instantaneous and, usually, catastrophic.
Just wait. Wind it up and let it go.
Patience, Padawan.

The none-too-kind braintrust at Beretta take great offense to this claim.



As you can plainly see, their M9A3 out-SCARs the SCAR itself, with no less than FIVE, count 'em, FIVE different shades of Flat Dookie Earth!

They rest their case...but they are now advertising for a new color selection engineer, last I heard.

Dang. That Beretta is a powerful kind of ugly.

Yeah, it is.

Which is hard to do with a Beretta 92 series handgun.

Nah, the anodizing guy at FN was drunk that Monday AM and put too much green in the mix.

I’ve been thinking the Glock 26 to be the modern eras snubby...

That Beretta looks like my dog threw up all over it... sweet Jesus my eyes, they burn

The M&P2.0 5” FDE is 4 different colors

It certainly makes the G19X look pretty, which is hard to do.

I'm sure that every one is a bit different. and photo's are always a color problem. But my m9a3 is way better than that, my SCAR is way worse than those last pictures and my G19x is way way worse than the original photo. I don't actually care and enjoyed the original humor (maybe you have to own a Scar to appreciate it) but obviously nobody in any of these situations at the mfg. gives a hoot.

I always liked the mis-matched look of the FDE SCAR. I Like the G19X as well. I'm a sucker for FDE I guess...probably because I've had to wear that ACU/UCP abortion of a uniform pattern for the last decade plus and FDE is a nice, neutral and Army acceptable accessory color.

Good news, we have "OCP" now...bad news I have to come out of pocket a ton of $ to buy it.

Every time I dress myself my wife makes like someone who doesn't like an FDE scar or m9a3 or G19x in terms of matching stuff. Just saying.
