I just painted my first rifle

Looks like a christmas decoration

And it can deliver a hell of a present.

I painted my CVA 45-70 single shot/converted muzzleloader last night. This time I used a stencil after applying a light tan base coat. 3 other colors were applied through the digital camo stencil. At first I was not wild about it but it is sort of growing on me now. It should be a pretty good all purpose camo for hunting the wet and dry side.

Thanks for the motivation.

I'm pretty happy with it. It will certainly blend better. I got enough paint to do a few. I am going to try a multi cam next using a template from Amazon. Definitely takes a bit of practice to get the limbs and branches to print, the sticker template might be a bit cleaner lines. This is definitely a beater camo job for a beater KISS rifle.

That looks great! Took the fal out this afternoon and ran some rounds through it to set the paint you know. It worked great!
