It's pretty common amongst others. But I guess the can would make sense When I painted my Mk12 Mod1 clone, I shot the whole rig without thinking that I'd have a can for it. Shit changes. Got my 12th Model in the NFA clink until my Form 4 clears and I went and built my M&P 15-22 into a SEAL recce and had the barrel profiled to run the 12th Model. So when I painted it, I masked it off. If you go a page or two back, you'll see them. |
