I just got my parts back today after having them cerakoted in Elite Blackout and Patriot Brown. I don't know how I feel about it and kind of wished I just did everything in Blackout. Any opinions...

I don’t disagree.

It might look good with burnt bronze or gold instead of the brown, if you want to keep the 2-tone look.

yea you're right. I just didn't want to go with FDE because that is the go-to for most builds. I took precautions in case it did not turn out good. I sent an additional pair of scope rings and an additional bolt knob to be coated in Blackout. If I put those in it only leaves the fluted bolt, barrrel shank, muzzle brake and bolt release that are patriot brown. So I think I will try the other scope rings and bolt knob to see if it looks any better.
 
It's going to suck looking at it indoors. Maybe the color combination isn't the best, but take it outside to the sun and take some pics like that. Natural light will make it look better.

I agree though, maybe burnt bronze or a light ish grey would have made it a bit more pleasing to the eye.
