No bullshite. Let me know if it sucks so I can fix it. Obligatory foot in all pics because I'm a boss. Is there anything I need to differently?

You painted it? Looks a hell of a lot better than I'd do if I tried.

I'd be happy with that...

Yeah I painted it myself. Just making sure it looked ok before I put the clear coat on it to finish it.

Not a fan of the colors but if that is what you want it looks good for what it is. If that makes sense.

It's Khaki, brown, OD green and army green. Is there some other camo color I'm missing? Purple?

That's very legit. The thing I don't like about painting them is durability. I'm not saying you'll scratch it, but just on the pistol grip where you grab it over time will begin to wear. Get a black rubber grip and you can combat the problem in that spot.

If you look closely the grip and the trigger are taped. So is the front internal working of the sight. And I removed the foregrip so it and the grip will remain black. I just still have it taped so I can clear coat it which will make it durable.

Also, by the bolt release, it looks like a penis.

Agree. Looks like solid work and props for getting a foot in a non-fish pic.

Not my cup of tea, but it looks good broke.

Rivals some of the ones that come from factory like that.

I didn't know if I would like it or not but I have 2 rifles almost identical so I wanted to do something different with one. This is what I ended up with. The good news is that a little brake cleaner and a brush and it can be back to black within a few hours.
