Thanks for your help because my quoting you made a difference.
Now for the big color question, what is Coyote Brown? What I mean by this is do we have a United States military standard for this color? Before anyone dings me for not doing my own homework, that's going on too but I haven't gotten an answer yet.
Is this a single color or does it refer to a subtle range of like colors?
I'm going to have to do some more homework. Any guidance would be appreciated.

Bill:
If you Google Coyote Brown, you will get a lot of hits with a lot of variation on the colors.
CB in G-10 will likely be significantly different from CB fabric.
The CB color is a sort of dark or dirty looking khaki, IMHO.
Here is a pic of a Kifaru Pack from their site in CB, if that is of any help. They also have recently changed their color of CB, discussion here http://www.kifaru.net/MGcolors.htm, pic below.
The Marines have a new standard for CG that they are using for socks and underwear with the MARPAT cammies.
HTH.
