Painted a few more rifles

EDIT: I can't figure out why these aren't uploading as photos (I'm not doing anything differently). Can someone help?

I was supposed to do this two years ago after my FIL built rifles for my kids… but we got distracted with life.

This is a continuation of my first few paint jobs years ago when I first joined the forum under a different handle (LckyTylr). Warning, that one's an old thread, I doubt you can access most of those photos.

Painted Rifles

Let's see 'em. If you have painted a black gun . . . post up some pics please with what kind of paint you used and how much effort it took. I have painted a Remington 700 factory stock with Aluma-Hyde. Super easy and it's held up well so far. I have plans to paint my new AR when I'm done...

Anyways, here goes. Last time I did this I had to hand-cut the stencils. This time my wife used her cricut and we paid for a stencil file. I apparently didn't do enough prep/cleaning because it's not adhering very well to the AR's. I'm in the middle of finishing my daughters and I think I'm going to have to start over.

The SS Rem 700 is my favorite. Looks sharp!
