This is one of the ugly ducklings in our family; excluding optics, mounts, light setups & bipod there was only approx. $250 in the rifle after all the buying/selling/trading. The camo'd barrel assy. (Colt 1x7), h.guards & stock were purchased insanely cheap back during the ban because the gentleman was only after the pre-ban lower but he also kept the upper receiver -

Hawkeye,
The top AR, what colors did you use? More specificaly, how did you do it. That is exactly the type of cammo job I want to do with my AR. |

Krylon Camo line.
All Khaki base. Mist with OD to make it appear dirty. Brown and OD stripes to break up the outline. |

Here is the only one I have done right now, and my first attempt at Kryloning a firearm:
  This one is going to be done very soon, EOTech and everything. It won't be done in the same pattern.  Pulling fireguard  with the soon to be painted M4gery . |

Wes1:
What are you using to apply the finish, airbrush? And what finish are you using. I love the pattern, and would love to try and duplicate something similar to that on some of my hunting/shooting tools. |

This is generation 2 of my camo progression.
I'd just installed the Aimpoint RAS II and had previously had a SWAN Sleeve on the rifle. http://thirdinfantry.sytes.net/sigs/ghengispics/c6.jpg There is Alumahyde coyote, od and dark earth on the rifle with the old Testors camo job on the crizzappy stock. In the woods. http://thirdinfantry.sytes.net/sigs/ghengispics/c8.jpg http://thirdinfantry.sytes.net/sigs/ghengispics/c3.jpg Originally I was going to highlight the Alumahyde with tan and black Alumahyde but thought I'd try some other paint first. I've since added a richer green a lighter tan and richer brown Testors because the tones of the Alumahyde were so similar and the Alumahyde has a satin finish whereas the Testors is flat. Here are the best(read lousy) pics I have of the new paint job. Generation 3 The mag and buttpad are not usually on the rifle and were for contrast only. The stock has got to go. http://thirdinfantry.sytes.net/sigs/ghengispics/t4.jpg http://thirdinfantry.sytes.net/sigs/ghengispics/t1.jpg MARPAT boonie, Woodland cover on K-pot and Multicam boonie also in pic for comparison. http://thirdinfantry.sytes.net/sigs/ghengispics/t2.jpg I've found it dificult to evaluate the camoflage effectiveness on my own because I knew where the items I placed were. I took this picture with the focus on the organic foreground to see how readily my eye was drawn to the foreign objects.hinking.gif http://thirdinfantry.sytes.net/sigs/ghengispics/t3.jpg I'm not thrilled with this camo either and may strip it and start over. The stock is definitely geting pulled b/c I primed it first and the paint easily strips down to the white primer with light to medium use. |
