Husker Posted January 23, 2008 Report Share Posted January 23, 2008 (edited) Thanks for the comments. As for the paint job, it was a pain for me. It was going to be MARPAT but being as no place actually sells the brown I need in the brand I need, it just kinda became what it is. I printed out a MARPAT image onto sheets for overhead projectors. I took an exact-o knife and cut the color sections out, so I had 1 sheet for every color. Than I just based the gun, and over lapped 1 color at a time. I was able to lay about 3 sections than a break for drying, so the template didn't smudge. Took a couple of hours but after some patience it got done. I think the worst was just cutting the details out. Can't quite decide if I want to paint the TM yet, I kinda actually like the OD. If I did anything it would be a OD/Black shadow mix like the cheek rest. The short mag was a learning experience though. If I can find the right tools I may make more.

TheAverageAsian Posted January 23, 2008 Report Share Posted January 23, 2008 ACU paintjob looks fantastic, however I like the TM more though. Nice tough with the cord on the rails, and the short mag gives it a very streamline look. What kind of cheekpad is that though? TAA Link to post Share on other sites
Husker Posted January 23, 2008 Report Share Posted January 23, 2008 The cheek rest is Cydex. I believe it's from Karston's Customs. Link to post Share on other sites
