Thought I would share some pics of the paint I had put on my Remington Model 700 .30-06. It always bugged me to be packing a black synthetic stocked gun with a flat black barrel. Too much black for my liking. So I heard about a local guy that has been doing this for turkey guns for several years. I'm pleased with how it came out.

dang that's pretty sweet!

I gotta admit, that is pretty sharp.

Looks great, but don't drop it in the woods!

I'd like to do something like that to mine, maybe with a tad more green in it.

Good looking camo there Grasshopper, but it sticks out like a sore thumb against that purple background.

I finally decided to paint this custom Mc Millanstocked M700 with Krylon, it matches my enviroment pretty well.

how much would something like this cost? and where did you you get it done, any details or suggestions

very slick looking rifle....what is Krylon?

Is there any specific paint that is resilliant enough to put on a rifle without it chipping or flaking off after a box or two? or is that what Krylon is?

Gangly, Krylon is nothing more than a brand of spray paint that can be had from walleywurld or home depot. The cost is about $3.50 a can and it's available in the basic camo earth tones. I dont wory about the scratches and dings in the finish because it's simply an easy fix with a touch of a button.The most attention needs to be that everything is clean and free of oil for good results.

Nice job guys...[8D]

Good job but the only thing I would have passed on is painting the bolt. At least the part that slides. The handle no big deal.
