My darn keyboard is not big enough it's not the fingers it's the little keyboard. Now my uncle Bill , or Redbeard Irish big man can put a quarter through his ring finger. He is Redwoods logger from Anderson California. He's 95 now. A big big man .

Ok I reread my whole post here , and re looked at all the pics. You Won , so far . You , and the 2K paint pick by Blackdog on page 1. Badass paint expensive , but would turn the rattle can paint to something like Dura coat. I need your help here if you are willing. I'm sure others would like to knowcas well , but can you take a little time , and explain the prep , and how you did this. Was it free hand , but I seen streaks , and many things going on here. OldVet wants to know. If I'm able to learn this whole process I would much appreciate it
thanks. Edit : I never noticed the side lever sticking out straight on a Texan as they were all folded I think. The K2 paint comes in a matte , and you could preserve this rifle like a Heirloom IMHO it deserves it. Edit 2 Maybe a few more pics showing both sides , and the side lever folded. Thanks.

Texan .308 rattle can Rust-oleum flats

I'd thought about painting an entire..."entire" gun, some time back.
Since then, I've see some "sniper", (actual sniper) guns painted like this. Just mask the optics lenses, and push the spray can nozzle.
So now, here's an air rifle, done similar.
Well done, 357cal .

I have had a couple stocks hydro dipped and it really made all the difference for me. Really love it. Also have done many cerakote jobs on PBers and it really made them feel like they were a part of me instead of just a tool.
Some really beautiful airguns in this post. You Guys are really talented.
