[QUOTE="SMS, post: 1610072, member: 42"] Less is more....if you are truly interested in camoflaging it for utility purposes then you don't need to spend a lot of time and money. The only goal is to 'mute' the appearance of the rifle. A simple undercoat of sand or tan, with overlaying blotches or patterns of brown, green followed by a complete light dusting of OD will do the job in 20-30 minutes for the cost of a couple cans of paint. Easy to touch up...not a disaster when the gun get's dinged, scratched and used. Of course if you want to have a conversation piece you can spend a lot more time and money. Here's one link that covers the basics. They use Aervoe paint, but you can get the same results (maybe with less 'true' color) from Krylon...and you can modify the colors to suit your liking.
