Years ago I rattle canned a shotgun for duck hunting that has held up well and still looks great after almost 40 years. With that in mind, I prepped a magazine and practiced on it first and then got serious on my coleman water bottle. Satisfied the gun wouldn't turn out like azz, I did a thorough degrease and taped up some of the areas I did not want paint on. A base coat of hunter green with some dark brown slashes followed by a light sage green sprayed over cedar boughs from the yard, gave me the NW forest look I was after. I will be painting more after this experience.
