Re: krylon.... prime first?
Never have, usually clean with some sort of degreaser real quick, quick dry with compressed air and spray away. Have a couple rifles that get used/carried every few days, paint stays on plenty good.

Quick wipe down with brake cleaner- then start with
a light basecoat...

Re: krylon.... prime first?
I've never used primer but I mist the whole rifle as my first coat. Not sure why but the paint seems to stick better. No flaking or chipping.

Re: krylon.... prime first?
As already said- no primer, but light coats definitely stick better than going too heavy at first

No primer here either. It will wear if used but it's easy to redo.

I use lacquer thinner to clean and degrease, and put on several thin coats of HS Camo permanent, or Krylon camo-and then sometimes cover with flat (not matte) clear for an extra layer of protection. It holds up really well.
