I was asked by the owner to post pics here. I would have posted them in the original thread he made, but I think it got lost in the archives somewhere.

It looks:



1) Well done!

2) Quite red+black

Is it supposed to look like that?

Quality of workmanship: 10/10



As for the owner's idea, um, well, um, I give an E for effort.



All I have to otherwise add is I wonder if the owner needs a matching pair of socks? Only 5.49 a pair.



Uh oh, I hope none of you are getting other color/pattern ideas now. Turquoise/Fluorescent Yellow FTW.

Hey, he had to make 50 headshots to get that pattern on that rifle.  If it were fall pattern, we'd all be in awe because that's 350 headshots.

Mariannes  kid has unlocked that fall pattern, and yes, it's impressive!!!
Here is one my daughter painted last year, it's her .22 rifle. She designed the pattern and painted it herself. I like it, but LOVE your pattern a LOT better Todd. Was thinking of doing one in blue/black myself...






I know the amount of work that went into your project Todd, and appreciate the craftsmanship!!

You can't top the "LOOK AT ME" factor of that rifle.

obtw, My WOA match rifle is bright red and I get the "aw, ain't she cute" at the matches. I think I going to paint my smallbore rig lime green or Barbie pink

It is a heck of a job, that had to be a lot of working making those stripes.  It would be interesting to get some shots of the rifle against various backgrounds –– I'm wondering if that pattern may work better than we think?

This is why he wanted this I think he will be happy to hear that you recognize it as such.

But I do definitely respect what certainly looks like an involved and very skilled Duracoat job.

And the good business sense to respect the customers tastes.

Eh, I got bored with it pretty quickly.



I think I might sign up for gamefly when black ops comes out just to try it.

I guess the man plans on keeping that rifle for a long time.

I lol'ed at these responses. This is my rifle, and yes, it's a COD tribute. It's just a fun rifle for me, I have safe's full of SHTF weapons, but thought a fun one would fit in nicely. Plus, both of my step sons are big into COD, but not so much into real guns, and I am hoping this is the gateway. Hell, the money will be VERY well spent if I can get them to the range with me. I mean I had a WAY larger bill getting them into cars the way I am!

Oh, and I just picked up a Norinco Uzi, I am thinking tan with black bits would look pretty baller. Oh, and the G3 clone is a good one to, not a Century Arms job. It's an Atlantic Arms PTR-91. Sorry to all those I offended


Can't wait to pick it up!!!!

I once said that if a sky blue Desert Eagle covered in Hello Kitty decals is what would get my wife into shooting, she'd have one by the end of the month.

I can make that happen.

Unfortunately, she's stubborn.

She won't ever like shooting because that's "my thing" even if she tried it once and loved it, she still wouldn't let her self. Just the way she's wired.

That's awesome.  If I ever hit the lottery you bet your ass I'm gonna have Todd do a fall pattern ACR with a Spike's 37mm mini-n00bt00b on it!

Dude, it's better that way! Trust me.
My wife is the same way and I like that.
My brother drags his wife into every man thing we do. Makes me sick.
