I have only been able to find the FDE color up in Canada and it is just too light to match with all the other shades of the FDE accessories I own. Anyone have any recommendations? Is a butt stock ITAR restricted item or can I just buy it in the states and ship it to a box at the border?
 
Brownells has them for about 100$ us. And yes they ship to Canada. That's where I got mine. Keep in mind these are not the commercially made ones. They do not have rear QD and come in milspec blue bag.

That looks like the regular Bravo version, not the SOPMOD Enhanced version like in the photo with the battery storage compartments + larger cheek weld.

Look in stocks, they have the enhanced version but not in coyote. Just FDE which is more of a sand color.
 
I had a similar problem. The BCL 102 FDE wasn't FDE. It's much closer to Taupe or Coyote. FDE with the B5 was far too light.

This is the model you want " B5 Sopmod Stk Mil-spec Cb " This version has the battery storage and the quick release sling point. I had to order it from the US. CGN blocks the name if I try to type it.

Sorry I don't have a better photo.

Here was the problem with FDE. The Coyote is much closer as seen in the photo above. Not perfect but acceptable. Coyote is significantly darker than FDE and is actually a bit darker than the BCL 102 colour you see.

wow that FDE is significantly lighter in color than I thought. I know the flash has a lot to do with the rendered color but damn.

I’ll see if I can get an update comparison for you. Both stocks have since been rattled but storage tubes are still the same original colors.

If anything, B5’s “FDE” isn’t FDE at all but more of a sand color.
