I was looking to do something different, I have done some in the past in the same style as everyone else.
 Well what do you think?  Here it is with stock and pistol grip done. |

Thank you!
 Now I just have to finish the rail covers and tube. I also have done some customizing of a palm rest pistol grip with the shelf removed, it fits my hand very well and I barely have to use and hand pressure to keep a nice grip. I will post pics as I finish, also does anyone know if leupold voids a warranty if a scope it painted? |

That looks very well done. What product did you use? My only thought would be that you might could use a little more FDE or coyote depending on your particular area. Good Work.

I used Spray paint, Aervoe and Hunters Specialties.
Yeah I was leaning to some coyote brown, the brown I have is too dark and all I had was tan. That's the beauty of spray painted camo, going somewhere new? painto to match! I won't be painting the upper and lower or bbl, they are AA, Colt, And Walther Lothar. That would be like spraying grafitti over a Dali. ETA: I may duracoat the receiver, hey why not?...its mine and I am not selling it. Just makes it an expensive Evil Colored Rifle, because saying black is not pc

I just asked Leupold, they don't care if it gets painted, just no refinishing requiring dissasembly or heat.

Is that the mesh liquor stores put around the bottles?

you don't even have to wrap the stock with the mesh, get a nice flat piece and hold it by hand, use a curly piece on the curved parts.

No it isn't but if it convinces the wife that you HAVE to buy some good liquor, then by all means tell her it is ABSOLUTELY NECCESSARY |
