[QUOTE="NikatKimber, post: 1735054, member: 423"] Green on guns is not my cup of tea, but it somehow works on that gun. This is my project gun. Armscor M20 .22lr. Paid $110 as it is in the first pic. (the one in front) [IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/i157.photobucket.com_albums_t52_m5stingray18_Guns_Armscor_20Stock_M20_10_22_Rt.jpg[/IMG] It doesn't look bad there, but the stock was in poor shape, lots of discoloration and nicks. The barrel had a lot of rust freckles, some pretty pitted. Refinished the stock first. [IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/i157.photobucket.com_albums_t52_m5stingray18_Guns_Armscor_20Stock_NewStockR.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/i157.photobucket.com_albums_t52_m5stingray18_Guns_Armscor_20Stock_NewStockL.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/i157.photobucket.com_albums_t52_m5stingray18_Guns_Armscor_20Stock_NewStockButtCloseup.jpg[/IMG] The stock looks better than it really is. I liked the color, but I went lazy, (and ignorant of better ways), did a rattle can finish rather than oil rubbed or something more durable. Next I stripped the bluing, sanded where it was rusted, and then polished.

Was planning on working with Honeybee, and doing a gloss blue job on it. But I liked the polished look, so it stayed that way.
