bigbearhunter,
I like what I see. Looks like you're doing pretty good work.

I'm about to start a wintertime project using duracoat. I am at square one, i.e., no tools on hand. Am thinking of buying the duracoat starter kit from Midway/Brownells or whoever.

Is that what I want or do I want a "better" setup.

I'm gonna end up with zebra stripes if it kills me. I've been doing some personal studies and zebra stripes have gotta be the cat's meow for winter camo or anything else for that matter.......

Roy, I can get you all the stuff you need, I'm a dura coat dealer and I'll do it for just over cost. I personally use a special airbrush and compressor that setup cost me about $250 but it is worth it. I can do splatter with my brush where some can't. I can get you all the colors and any of the camo paterns you wan't just let me know.

Is it necessary to take the rifle apart to paint it, or can you just tape the action and lenses? I just had my rifle bedded and would hate to take it apart. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
