  • On today's video, we paint an AR type rifle using the combat method. With rattle cans and camo paint, in just a few minutes your rifle can be ready for a woods walk. And as you know, a painted gun just shoot better...

    When using any kind of stencil you shouldn’t spray so close to it or it just looks like a blob. Spray a little further away and lightly dust on the paint and the effect will come through much better

      Of course, @Project_38 it's refreshing to hear someone talk about paintballing In a positive way again! And know what their talking about. Back in the 80's we just used BB guns..then to paintballing cause it didn't hurt as much. lol well trying to get back into the sport with my son! He loves it! I just need to catch up on all the latest myself. We MUST keep this sport alive.

    I always found the best looking/most natural spray job was a tan or sand base coat, a few swipes of brown and green for striping, then blending it all together with a misting of green. works for a lot of environments, and doesn't make your gun look like it was sponsored by Real Tree (tm) camo.
    Also, Krylon is INFINTELY better than rust-oleum. It wears much more naturally, adheres better (where I've found rusto-leum kind of chips as it wears) and just has an overall better looking finish.

    • @Project_38
      @Project_38  Před 7 měsíci

      I like what you said and appreciate your thoughts. And I don’t think you can go wrong with any combination. Keeping in mind current environment, changes of season and whether or not deep woodland or open expansion.
      Where I live, it’s all of the above.

    Wouldn't it make more sense to just leave the flip up sights down, so you only spray the front, and the back is good.

      Not at all. The solvents “gas off” real fast and it doesn’t leave any residue. I think it’s the safest to use.

    • @Project_38
      @Project_38  Před 3 měsíci +1

      Thanks for stopping by and for your questions.
      The paint I used had primer in it. Either way, primer is not necessary. After you paint your rifle, or whatever you paint, handling it and rubbing against your gear will cause it to wear off. No worries though, quick touch ups are easy.
