Painted MP5SD - Inspo needed!

[CamboL]

As per the title really

Paint nearly all of my gats, but one gun has so far eluded the obligatory krylon - my SD6 NGRS

Even the CQB areas (with the exception of Blackstone) I play are in woodland so thinking green/brown based scheme but open to suggestions. Tend to favour more “real steel” style camo as opposed to bright and lairy COD skins.

Looking for inspiration pictures of painted MP5SDs to help me decide if it’s worth taking the plunge. Pics of its current setup below:

They were used a tiny bit by SOF types who could actually paint their guns in Iraq/Afghan but then of course they got desert spray jobs. Google images actually brought up very little.

I'd see that as a good thing though, means you get to be more of a trail blazer. Just whack some big fat diagonal stripes of the Krylon dark brown and dark/OD green on there I say, that'll be cool. Worst case, you can just paint right over it again.

Yeah I couldn't find much and think the desert camo works well if running a M/Cam load out but I'm predominantly in DPM/RG anyway

Funny you say about the OG/Brown as that's exactly how I've done some of my other toys but wasnt sure about the MP5...

That stock on an MP5K is criminal.

It's an old picture. I saw the error of my ways and removed it a couple of years ago

And fitted an HK folding stock like the good lord intended?

Just an end cap so no stock at all
