I wan’t to do this, I just suck at arts and crafts bs
Easiest non artistic way to paint is to make “X’s” with 2-3 colors.

Both of these took zero time. AR’s are even easier because they have bumps etc so it breaks up large pieces of one color.

The MC I taped, wiped down and sprayed while the grill was warming up for burgers one day after work. Literal 15 min.

The Vudoo was a little longer because my son wanted to help. He was playing Fortnite and liked a snow camo he saw. He was shooting the 22 a ton so we played around.

Not sure if you can do it…cover the whole rifle with blue painters tape. If it looks like crap just peel it off.

What I do in the winter is tape over my hunting stuff with hockey grip tape. Already has a white base and hit it with a few gray and brown stripes. Come spring I just peel it off and I’m back to what ever color it was originally.

Pussy, where is your sense of adventure
Well, recap of last night... Have not drank in a week.
Started at 1700, seen the drinking and painting guns post. Painted rifle. Closed shop but left lights on. Left gun room open. Did not eat dinner.
Passed out before dark.
Left toys out in the yard. Luckily I live in the woods.
Hence my alcohol up tools down rule. Fuckin peer pressure..

So when did you visit @sirhrmechanic ?

LOL

This is the Guns and Gold Museum in Peru. The largest private collection I have ever seen. It is truly breathtaking for a gun nut like me.
I have visited firearms museums all over the world, but this one takes the cake! It took me nearly all day to photograph the collection.

Kids good but, nothing like the left handed genius of Jimi Hendrix



I'm was one of those kids that thought they could learn to play like Jimi. That made me better, but not good enuf.

IIRC, Jimi recorded something like 9 or 11 tracks for the studio version that was first on Rainbow Bridge.

I can play The Wind cries Mary note for note.....single coil pups, crystal clear tube amp sound....and it still sounds different(and usually much worse) than Jimi :LOL: I gave up and figgered out decades ago I could try to play like all my favorite guitarists but I would never sound the same. It's all in your fingers and your own unique sound signature as a guitarist. That is more than good enuf for me. 😉
 
@Whiskey Tango Foxtrot Sounds like a successful night, good for you, man! 🍻😂
O mann... and it just gets better.
So, there I was drinkin wine and paintin walls in the never ending shop project this evening.
Get finished go have a shot a whiskey.
Putting stuff up in the gun locker after emptying a few mags today, fixin to lock it up and what do I hear?
The feeder alarm up the hill going off. Look outside and see a pack of hogs.
So load up some of these real qiuck

and sneak up around the truck and get off 6 rounds. Heard 3 maybe 4 thumps ( another great thing about cans you can hear your hits)
Here were 2 thumps.

not bad. Peer pressure got me too. I am rattle canning one now too. But I still had to take it apart, my OCD wouldn't let me not take it apart.
