I posted this in my hometown forum but I wanted to share it with the rest of arfcom!  I already gathered more parts to build this out so as soon as I have it all ready I will paint the rest of the gun.

Looks like somethin Marcus Luttrell would own, minus the artificial battle scars. Might as well give her a good toss down the ol driveway! Lol

I like it! But now you'll have to do the same with ALL of the other parts you use, otherwise it will look lame.

Never understood the point of fake "wear"  It's like buying jeans that already have holes. Just shoot the hell out of it and it will get authentic wear.

Im with you. Or at least do it in the right spots. Battle wear is on the high points, IE brass deflector, area around forward assist, lips of magwell, he did it to the low spots...

Battle wear only happens in battle.


I have no inclination to make my personal firearms look like anything I've been issued.


Do not like.



The wear looks artificial and cheap.

This would be an excellent candidate for a patina finish.

It's funny how Texans think Texas is so great. When you hear a Texan brag about Texas you would think they were talking about Montana or Idaho....

I've been all over Texas, was stationed there for a number of years as well.  It was just ok at best, but nothing to write home about.

Pass on the cheesy way too proud of Texas flag and poser  markings.

I like the flag. The entire thing looks cool, the fake wear isn't something I'd do, though...but the Lone Star flag...yep, I may have to do that.

Also, where do you get a Honey Badger receiver?
