I was looking at lots of pictures and tutorials until 3am, lots of information, and barely any filter!
What ya trying to say about me being a Yam Yam any-road-uppads? Ah bay a brummy!
As for the stocks:
This is one of the ones I saw last night and couldn't find it, Looks great in my opinion...
As for painting on to wood, provided you either sand it right back to the wood to make it porous enough to absorb the paint, or key the varnish so that the paint adheres to it, you shouldn't have any problem with normal type rattle cans.
As for taking it somewhere to get it done, it's a lot of money for something that you can do yourself... there may be benefits, such as a service, when taking it to places mentioned, but so long as you don't get paint on any moving parts, then theres no real worry.
It just makes me think of the scene in Shooter when Mark Whalberg goes to walmart and buys all the paints to camo up the rifle using leaves and stuff in the woods he's about to stalk the bad guys in...
