Broke down and did it the big AR10T last week. I had practiced on an old POS tasco scope before but I was kinda nervous.

Results were pretty damn nice especially for a first time. I only regretted not doing the rubber variable power ring, but it's already damn hard to rotate as it is I didn't want to paint over it and lose more grip.

Sadly it was just a bit too light for my AO but I like it. I'll probably do the M14 and scope but in a more dark/greenish tins. I might buy these and try a multicam: http://www.brownells.com/.aspx/pid=1...ct/CAMO_PAINTS apparantly they're fast drying enamel.

I used Krylon Camo Khaki, then dark brown then OD. After than I did some spots with the rustolium enamel in dark taupe. I'll update with pics tomorrow.
