I like the solid green in the very first picture. It looks a lot better than black. But I wouldn't want the barrel included in the paint job.

I think too much is made over the need for camo on everything. I seldom even wear camo clothing, believing how a hunter moves (or doesn't move) is way more important.

I couldn't agree more! I have one gun that is camo which is an 870 Turkey Special. I think camo guns are marketed to hunters just as camo clothing. The person cares a lot more about it than deer do.

I have no idea how many deer I've killed in blue jeans and solid colored shirts. I once shot a doe at 10 yards in early bow season wearing shorts and a white undershirt.

MD,
Nice job on the camo. I have seen several of the ML's that you have refinished and I can appreciate the time that you have put in on several of those ML's. Again that is a very nice job.
