Got around to getting the gun painted before the cooler weather came, being the first time I think I did a pretty good job, I like it atleast.

That turned out pretty well. I think you hit the sweet spot between too much sponge/too-small of a pattern and not enough.

No I don't unfortunately. Work 2 jobs now so I'm gone from 8 am - 9 pm most days. Might be able to get one this weekend, unless I shine my 44" led light bar on it outside when I get home lol. I'm curious too what it looks like outside

Very nice work, I'm contemplating on painting mine right now. Thanks for showing what steps you took. What kind of paint did you use?
