Show me your camoflaged weapons!
Jul 10 2012, 12:18 AM EDT | Post edited: Jul 10 2012, 12:18 AM EDT
As any of you who follow me on facebook and other sites may know; I've been working on painting my AK to blend in better with the environment.
I done for a few reasons: 1. I had about $15 and I'd been eying some spray at a hardware store. 2. I wanted my rifle to blend better in my environment.
I've always liked black guns to an extent; they scream "I'm all business!", but black doesn't occur naturally very often and tends to stand out in most environments. Which is why I think it's wise to camo your gun.
I'll show you mine, but I want to see your custom camo jobs!
What colors did you use? What environment were you trying to match? What kind of paint did you use? What it a spray job or did you use a baked on finish? If you haven't camo'd your guns at all, how would camo them if at all?

Here's mine.

(That safety is awesome by the way).

I used Rustoluem ultra flat hunter's green as a base coat (sprayed 3 coats of it), followed by a treatment of Khaki and Earth brown. It's to match the Oklahoma woodlands and the grassy areas around here. It may get a few black spots every here and there for shading, but I'm still debating that. Not bad for a $15 paint job.


Show me yours! Do you find this valuable?

I didn't do my red dot sight or my flashlight because I'm replacing both =). The Aimpoint that will be on there shortly is going to get the same paint job, as will the Surefire flashlight. Do you find this valuable?

None of my rifles are camo'd, I would like a hexagonal dark urban ATACS bake on job for the SCAR 16 and the 17(when purchased) for now I have 3 ghillie rifle wraps, 1 for the SCAR (when used as spotter back up rifle to the scout), 1 for the POF and 1 for the modified Styer Scout, they work well once on the rifle but can be a pain to wrap, I really like them for versatility as you can just grab local foliage and thread it into the weave to make it blend with whatever environment your in at the time.

btw, nice work ODB on the camo job, the AK looks sick Do you find this valuable?

Thanks lol. Like I said, not bad for about $15 worth of paint + the stuff I used to degrease it for prep. Do you find this valuable?

Look where they're painting this tool, what does everybody think about painting a Tapco SKS mag then stock like this?

I might try it. Do you find this valuable?

Slightly related, I ordered a tapco stock for an SKS I don't even have yet. I might try to camo it. Do you find this valuable?
