poulo6.5

nice job although not the colors i would go for, i have bin thinking about getting my new .243 build done in a drab olive or some variant of that.

great to see someone trying it out. i am guessing it is duracoat.

it is duracoat, Tactical Coyote Browne, and Tactical Desert Beige, I thought the Green was a bit too dark, maybe combined with another ccolour

i will be waiting until i get my stock built before i decide what color i will go for. i might even go for a pattern.
all in good time though

Like Poulo I wouldn't have gone for those colours, but to each their own. In saying that, it really has turned out well, and it's a very big improvement on the original! Well wear

he done a great job on it really looks well, as they say a change is as good as a rest,
were you tempted to put a disruptive desert pattern on the barrel?
best of luck with it

The paint job looks super. Its a great job. It makes a world of difference from what the rifle looked like in the first place.
Id just be worried that it would start to flake and chip after a few shots and a bit of wear. Then it might look ****e.
I hope it dosent, it would be a shame. Would it be an easy touch up job if it did?

Ooh not my cup of tea at all

To me a rifle is a functional practical tool, my steyr is black and staying black.

But then each to there own, no fear of you confusing it with someone elses !!!

Looks nice, did you do it yourself.

Is there some way that you can reduce the size of the images? My screen is not the same size as your rifle.

Pics are normal size when I open them, but when I tried to paste them into this reply they were very big.

Normally, 500kb or less comes out OKUnless you are using a mobile phone?

Those are massive and my screen has a high resolution 19 hundred & something by whatever, would need 4 screens to see one pic in the above quote.

I was thinking of coating my rifle drab olive or a variant of green to match the stock.

Although Barbed wire scratched my Duracoated stock

When I click on the Link it opens in another Tab and only is 1/4 size, I tried copy them in and they were huge.
when I size pics I normally resize pic 25% and it does the trick

Well, Sir - I have a 24" screen, and the butt-piece alone occupies ALL of it.

Never mind, I get the idea - it's sort of off-white/grey, right?

Ideal for shooting in much of Canada any time after October 1st.

So long as YOU like it, it's a never-mind as far as other folks opinions are concerned.

Well I have a Notebook with a small screen, I think how it opens has something to do with your windows settings, as when I copy and paste the URL into the image insert icon on this the pic opens huge.

God bless computers Eh!

I'll try resize it
