Thanks, I used 4 colors from the Rust-Oleum camouflage line of rattle can paints, and then used a flat clear coat.

Great looking gun. What kind of scope is that?

Also, what brand of flat clear coat did you use?

Not too bad, looks good.

I plan on doing a rattle can camo job when my M-14 gets here.

It's a BEC 6-24x44 Lighted Mil Dot Reticle Scope
and the paint was Krylon Matte finish.

I don't. I've done a couple of other stocks over the years.
Pick your base color (black in my case) cut out stencil shapes, paint the whole gun. Let dry, put on new stencil shapes partly overlap the last ones (leave the stencils for each layer on until you're completely finished painting). Paint with new (lighter) color (green) and repeat.... brown....tan etc. Usually 4-5 colors, and go from darkest to lightest.
Make sure you use the BLUE scotch edging tape - not regular masking tape. (It bleeds, and sticks too hard)
- Pull all the tape, and add a few layers of clear coat. That's it!

I bought it from a guy who'd already prepared it with a rust colored primer.

I haven't take it out yet. Traded for it a couple of weeks back, then ordered the mount/scope/sling/laser bore sighter/stock and added paint.
I'll take it out next weekend, and give an update.
