I would. I don't like my guns painted though. And I, like most people, would rather pay a guy to do it right, than try and screw up.

It takes away a lot of the "personalization" when someone else does it.

But as long as you're happy. I still think it's easier than it looks.

Yeah, I paint guns for other people for a small fee. Mostly just to cover my paint costs.

beer is a universal currency. You just can't deal with people under 21. legally anyways.

The stock looks good. Take that same pattern break-up and use it on the body and on the rail. It looks like just a little too much solid tan on the body. Also, put some paint on the front-sight and front barrel.

The OD panels and grip look out of place. So does the orange tip.

Looks like you're well on your way.
