It is. I dont like their paints for what they are/should be but worked ok for this.

I also did this one for someone else and I think it works ok but they arent great for replicating like dpm95 style colours /patterns.



Im not sure what its supposed to be, but they liked it.

Thanks for the compliments chaps :)

You must have an eye for it, the Air Rifle is cool too, i have an old battered S510 stock that would be perfect for filling sanding and painting, must get round to it someday!

Yeah go for it. Its worth doing a tester on something you dont mind being tested on first but appart from that just have fun.

So what are the prep stages for doing this? Do you use a template? I have a Remington 710 with a grey stock that could only be improved with a spot of paint.

If no pair work is needed just degreased and primed. Yeah I used a template on both but some of it is free hand too.

Well, that's changed a bit since I had it! Hope you're getting on with it?

:goodjob: on both,

Yeah I played with the trigger group and polished it. It responded well and shoots 69smk reloads 1moa.

Whats not to love?

Yep, nice paint jobs on both
