Did some shootin today....
....with a spray can that is!!!
I have been wanting to paint this rifle for quite some time now so I finally said screw it and I did it. I wanted the paint to be light and have a somewhat worn look, so the paint is thin but mostly covered.

Looks good!
That came out pretty damn good, nice job!
What did you use on it?
I used Krylon Fusion ultra flat Camo paint on it.
I really dig the way it came out. Its the perfect beater gun and thats what I wanted it to look like.
What about the ACOG?
Does only the end of the fibre optic need to be protected?
I did mask off the fiber optic on the Acog, I dont know if it is important or not but figured I would mask it anyway.
I added a FDE Ergo grip, and FDE enhanced trigger guard and some FDE ladder rails.
I will try and get some more pics today
your front/rear MBUS's are backwards on the rail, if you didnt already notice.
Anyhow, I like how it turned out! great job!
Thanks leatherneck!!Quote:

Thanks again, took it out yesterday and I was hitting a 12"X12" steel plate at 500 yards with it again!! Not to shabby out of a 14.5" barrel.
I wish I had the balls to do something like that to one of mine. How about splashing on a little black here and there for a sort of "urban camo" look?
I wish Magpul would offer their furniture in a gray color.
Oops... that's FDE? I thought it was a gray color. [Coffee]
