[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Pic request: green camo painted rifles

Posted: 12/8/2013 3:17:38 PM EDT

I'm considering rattle canning my AR in a green camo pattern. Any chance people have pictures of theirs? Thanks.

I painted my DPMS that I won at a gun bash earlier this year.

My color selection didn't quite jive the way I had hoped and all my brown was washed out. Now that the paint is starting to wear it is showing through some.

I intend to repaint it again, learning from my past mistakes.

Take a look in some of the picture threads in the various subforums for more ideas and images.

OD green and brown? S&W M&P 5.45X39 with a SUIT on it

OD green and tan? SIG 556R 7.62X39 with another SUIT on it. It has an Aimpoint now and the SUIT is back on another rifle.

Thanks, I put down khaki as the base coat, then grabbed a mesh laundry bag, laid it on the rifle and did alternating stripes of brown and OD. I also did a few practice runs on a cardboard cutout of the rifle.
