What Magpul XTM rail panel colors should be used to simulate Multicam camo? Also, who has the best deal on XTMs in the correct colors?

Not sure how much help this is for you, but its better than nothing.

I had to follow Stick. I really like the Mix&Match of the XTM’s.

Oh nice… i’d like this for mine. how many colors of each did you need to get this properly?

Thanks,

I have one pack (8 segments = 4 panels = 1 side) of all 4 colors, FDE, OD, Forrest and Black. On the Omega, I ended up using three on the sides since there is a QD on both and I didn’t want to cut any panels down. Even if you cover the QD you’d still need to trim a panel. The top has all 4 panels. This left me with 10 segments as extras.

would you be interested in selling those extras? or know cheapest place to get some.

I bought mine directly from Magpul. $7.95 a set. Getting Forrest and OD green is the most difficult and seems to be only available from Magpul right now.

Thanks to all, it looks like the best option for replicating Multicam is either all colors or all but black. If they made a dark brown, then it would be perfect with FDE, OD and the dark brown. Perhaps if LaRue ever sells just their new UDE color panels alone, it may be the dark brown replacement. Thanks again for all of the help.

Keep in mind you can get various shades of darkness by adding more or less of the lighter vs. darker panels. With, only three colors you will most likely start to get repeat colors next to each other. I’ve played around with my panels a few times and have changed them from when I took the picture to try to separate the colors more. I’ve also found that with a shorter rail, the harder it is to get the random look. If you’re not careful it will look like a checker board.
