Well guys, what do you think - paint the stock (flat OD green) or leave it as is? I kind of like the authentic used look but... |
|
I bought two with the intentions of trying my hand at painting. One OD and one grey. Bought the paint and everything. Bought extra handguards. Months ago. They are still the original brown with stencilled numbers on the stocks. I kinda' like it. Gives them that Napolean_Tannerite look without the cement application method. |
I believe hes refering to the fiberglass vs the wood stock Fiberglass has not cartouche or "P"roof mark to worry about |
True enough - however, common sense would prevent that horrible thought from even coming near to my cranium...  What was the secret to the nice camo job on your stock?
|
Its one of plastixplus AR stands Plastixplus good stuff web site also make stands for pistols |
actually it was quite easy masking tape and krylon camo paint base paint flat blk after it dried, taped off stripes with painters tape, painted next coat of kahki, tape then od green after it was all done remove tape one thing about krylon if ya dont like it ..... strip it and do it again use citrus strip to remove old paint but not ori usgi brown I havent sealed it yet with clear and may not. Not sure yet this thing has hit the range several times and no problems with the paint flaking or chippinig yet. and it has got hot with no after effects Krylon seems to be pretty tough stuff |
