Whilst I am awaiting my 3rd kit to arrive, I thought I'd share with you what happened
to my last purchase. My oldest daughter caught 'The Disease' from me but instead of an EBR she wanted an EPR. Needless to say she's a very happy customer.

Oldest is pushing 16. Started her off @ 5 with the same type of BB gun I
did––Crosman 760. Here is a pic of my daughters(plural-I have 3  ) rifles.
Top to bottom––16yr olds––13yr olds––10yr olds. The next Lightweight kit will probably go to the 10yr old. So far Dot #2 has no intrest in an AR(but she has been eyeballin my M1 carbine). |
| Would you mind posting the specs for the evil pink rifle? I want to do one like that for my daughter. I tried Krylon fusion on the plastic, but it chips off too easily. I will have to strip it off and try something else. What finish did you use on the rifle and how is it holding up? Thanks, Joe |

The paint is Duracoat. To use Pink,they recommend a White base coat so it works out fine. I didn't totally disassemble the rifle, just taped things off. I used a cheap Harbor Freight air brush, think it was about 10 bucks. So far it has been a durable finish but she does take care of her stuff. Hope that helped. 
ETA: That's just a doctored up Hello Kitty sticker. |
