Gun picture thread

[emilianoksa]

@emilianoksathey are both made by Western Arms , the two tone version has a metal slide & barrel upgrade fitted (shooters design if I recall )    

Thanks.

Pity they are no longer available.

@emilianoksa All stock TM

I sanded the finger grooves off the lower as they were just annoying and then stippled and painted it.

The slide is stock just Cerakoted in patriot brown, Tritium front sight, cowcow rear.

Excellent work.

Considering it is all stock, that is very impressive.

Does the cerakote on the slide really reduce the risk of the plastic scratching?

 

[Davegolf]

Cerakote is tougher than the plastic yes, but obv if you grind it up brickwork it wont last, but neither would any coating/anodising etc

 

[emilianoksa]

Thanks again.

A couple of shots of the USP 9 that I got recently and one with the UAR in tow - think they complement each other well aesthetically, nice sci fi ish vibe and something a bit different. Rather enjoying this pistol shooting it in the garden and skirmishing it this Sunday.

Will probably paint the slide in Halfords OD like all my others...

AAP build starting to take shape, waiting for a pair of custom grip scales with Ruger medallions inset, low profile mount for the Viper and a freshly cerakoted metal upper receiver to come back from Jack at Airsoft Engraver with Ruger MK4 Competition trades

Doesn't hold a candle to the chrome and carbon fibre Thompson ?

I really enjoy making paint and environments work, spent a lot of time and collected a lot of Cerakote swatches and loads of aerosol tests.

Some colours are very ‘reactive’ and play to the human eye changing quite dramatically in different light and backdrops.

 

[SerialNoodle]

Lovely ?

@SerialNoodle what is that rifle? Looks epic! Isn’t it already 9mm?

'Tis actually a TM Type 89 GBBR. It runs on a 5.56 magazine though I'm getting a fancy 9mm HPA conversion made for it.

Now I just need a black leather holster and only speak in eccentric catchphrases

Just got my Specna MK18 upgraded by Negative Airsoft and its an absolute machine, however, i'm not sure if i should paint it?

I'd probably go with ranger green and some brown with netting over the gun for the pattern if i did.

Should i do it?

Nope, leave it alone.

 

[TheFull9]

Depends if you're damn sure you're going to keep it.  Painted guns are generally the less common sight on the field because, as with any item, it dings the resale value and a lot of people are just too afraid to make the leap/commitment.  A camo gun vs a big block of black certainly doesn't hurt your chances of being seen in the bushes at a decent distance that's a fact.

I'd leave it as it is, it's your choice though.

How do you use it ?, for example if you said you practiced a dmr/counter sniper role in predominantly woodland sites, with quite a lot of camping?️ & sneakyness, then I'd say yeah, get busy painting?. 

But if your more active in an assaulter role, don't bother, not much gain & prob wear & tear will soon degrade your paintjob.
