The time honored tradition of sitting down with a rifle, a couple bottles of Krylon, a case of beer and no clear plan came home to me this last week. As my family has been out and away, I decided to get in touch with my artistic side. Its shallow, but occasionally needs a scratch.
Ever notice how posed photographs LOOK posed? Its a lame effect that only happens when people try too hard... About 2 beer and 15 screwed up passes of the Krylon into the job, your s**t will tend to even out and look like a professionally unprofessional paint job. ;-)
IMO, pre-cut, iron-on patterns with gloss finishes are o.k. for little kids, but some folk still prefer to paint their field guns like a man. Some will NOT agree with me, but I think they tend to be of the "paint a purple picture of Barney," paint-chip eating variety.
In the words of Bobby Bolivia:
Uncle Bobbie B, baby!
*EDIT: added some more photos, courteousy of the misses...
Unfortunately, we're mid packing for moving to Edmonton, so her light studio is torn down. Nonetheless, beats my crap photos. Most notable dd is the GG&G single point sling mount.

I know there's few around, saw a bunch on the E&E..As for a shoot in Valleyview, kinda far for me I usually go towards Edmonton & Wildwood to service rifle matches, but haven't done those for a year now. Check with M39a2, he organizes them at the Spruce Grove range.
: All Colt, All KAC... it's actually darker than in the pic and sports a KAC 600m Sight.
