Just did this a month ago. Nothing fancy, just some rattle can.(https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220729/a572c824eae6840ad79f52a7654c415c.jpg)

Thanks! I just painted the stocks, the barrel is shadow grass. Gun was originally all black, then i
added the 24" barrel and it was in shadow grass ( couldn't find a black one ) and i just didn't like
how it looked so i painted the stocks. Probably end up painting the whole gun down the road, but the metal is all in great shape except for wear on mag tube, so i've been reluctant to do it.

I got an all black one in May. 28 inch barrel,couldn't find a black 24 inch. Ended up ordering a 24 inch in mossyoak break-up country. Deciding what to do. I don't want to send it out. A local guy can dip it,but he is having trouble getting film.

Might be able to find some stencils that match up close to paint it, then have it dipped later on when your guy can get the film.

That turned out great! I really like the pattern you put on it, should be effective in a wide range of
terrain.
