aznconverter Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 I am planning to spray my rifle this weekend and would like some to know a few things, My gun is a JG m4a1 and mostly plastic. The paints I will use are going to be matte and made up at a spray shop so I can get the exact match of colours I want. Will I need to sand down the gun? add primer etc? Or will it be fine just wiping down and spraying straight on? As much info as possible please. I used the krylon camo series and didnt need any primer or sanding down Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hanski_hurja Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 Few shots of my M14. Haven't yet figured out what to do when the snow melts off ;D Quote Link to post Share on other sites
-=OGGY=- Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 a ghile wrap/sniper tape would be the only thing you could do...unless you want to repaint it every winter Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hanski_hurja Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 a ghile wrap/sniper tape would be the only thing you could do...unless you want to repaint it every winter Most likely I'll just buy another stock. Wooden would be nice. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Noart Posted February 28, 2009 Report Share Posted February 28, 2009 a wooden stock would be really sexy, i vote for that! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Vlado Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 Few shots of my M14. Haven't yet figured out what to do when the snow melts off ;D Why not just wrap it in some vegetation, or make something like a ghile, but for the rifle. And that gun is really nice!

leon_london Posted March 3, 2009 Report Share Posted March 3, 2009 my POS, its horrible, but ill kill the OPFOR with good looks. That's an "interesting" colour scheme! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ev1436 Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 That's an "interesting" colour scheme! i was bored and saw that i had some green and white krylon lying around, figured why not? unfortunately, i payed to have my m14 painted before that, so i couldnt get a sick digital snakeskin on both of them.

DarkLite Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 My Camera is dieing at the moment so the picture is woefully ###### - but it's my Gspec, which I did up in a MARPAT-esque digital pattern, which took quite a while to do, but I'm very pleased with. It really breaks the shape of the gun up and hopefully combined with the modified silencer it should let me stay quite well hidden. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hammerfall Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 (edited) That is some funky shiz right there ^ Should be quite effective Edited March 5, 2009 by Hammerfall Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DarkLite Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 Aye. I've had a few "Lol lego" comments already, but I care not, for it doesn't look like a gun. Tis the point. Also the tan in the picture is way out due to flash, it's much less garish in reality. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beta Posted March 7, 2009 Report Share Posted March 7, 2009 That is a really nice paint job on the VSR, great work DarkLite. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
TeamBanana Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 I love the worn to hell look. Makes it look like you actually use your guns. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shadownova Posted March 10, 2009 Report Share Posted March 10, 2009 (edited) Here are some of my guns: This is my old Mk.18 that used to be my primary. The color scheme and pattern is not meant to conceal the weapon or camouflage it. I actually wanted an eye catching paint job that lets people know what gun killed them and who it belongs to. It has a cut down SPR compensator that allows relatively quick attachment of a suppressor. This is my M733. I patterned it after Gary Gordon's rifle from the movie Black Hawk Down. I think I did a fairly good job replicating it. There is usually a flashlight mounted on the hand guard, but it currently loaned out to a friend. It used to have a full length tight bore barrel running the entire length of the barrel and silencer, but I switched it out so I could take the silencer off and use it for cqb. The brown on the hand guard is not paint, it is actually a thin covering of mud left over from a game. Edited March 10, 2009 by shadownova Quote Link to post Share on other sites
