    Default Painting an Upper

    I got bored and painted an extra upper I have laying around. Enjoy!

    I used some flat brown spray paint I have. I think it's Krylon, or rustoleum or something. I just got bored, I think I have three or four of these uppers.

    Nope, not going to paint a lower.

    Honestly, I painted the upper so I could tell which rifle was which just by a quick look. This one is going to be my 'you can build a rifle on a budget, even by today's prices' rifle.

    Thanks! I'll be posting up the total cost and method for getting this done when I get it done.
