Hey all, the 'smith is just about done with my new rifle. Its a MRC .416 Rem. Mag., with a Bansner glass stock. The rifle is Stainless. Does anyone have any ideas for the finished product? I was originally thinking of getting it Teflon coated, and having the stock painted a Tan/Safari color with a little black spackle or spiderweb....But I got a thought in my head about getting the Iron bead blasted and painting the stock dark dark grey. I better decide quick. Any ideas at all, feel free to share them please. I know its all a cosmetic thing, but still nice to have a nice lookin' piece. Thanx.

I never understood why people sometimes paint their stocks in order to camoflage them and then don't paint their stainless steel barrels. I would have the whole thing painted. | |||

I like a light bead blast on SS, the metal ends up looking like it has already acquired some "personallity". | |||

That works for me as well. /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// "Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery." Winston Churchill | |||

Blast the barrel and action with aluminum oxide chips and then Gun-Kote it with matte dark grey or light black. Grey stock, like the McMillan grey. _________________________________ AR, where the hopeless, hysterical hypochondriacs of history become the nattering nabobs of negativisim. | |||
