It is technically real wood as well! Albeit quite softwood. I am planning to varnish it to make it look somewhat like an SVD style gloss stock. Yeah gunfire were blowing them out for £54 a time! I do have a basic rifle scope I can put on it when I am feeling a bit more up for it.

I have a dust pan brush . I spray paint on to my workshop door work it on to the brush then on to the slide. I use various colours and when I worked it into the brush on the door picks up a little of what was already there. After that I take some tan colour water based model paint and dab it all over and just work it in with my hands for the grubby look.

No?

How come?

I love the M9A1 as its the mil version of a classic

...and got to have at least one M4 variant ;)

I may replace the CZ75 with a Browning Hi-Power mk3 when that comes out.

And I should be receiving a Tar21 today

nothing wrong with them. Against the pre 20mm rail classics all be them old school to the modern eye they just don't quite fit in the group. Not that you have to obviously just an observation.

Thanks for the explanation.

Very effective technique.

So was it all black originally? I mean the frame.
