Glad to have you join us Stealth be careful with the camo guns as Blues say, I painted stuff with camo paint out in the back yard and never have seen it since.
You have great day and shoot straight and may the Good Lord smile on you.

That's a very interesting pattern you have on your AR. Good to see the basic controls are still black, might make using them a little difficult if they weren't.

Nice rifle! Seeing this rifle reminds me of a proposed piece of legislation I saw floating around last year. If memory serves, the law would have standardized the colors that firearms could be :shock: .

I think the proposed reasoning for the bill was that some firearms could be painted to look like toys, casing point (I'm sure most of you have seen this): http://www.riflegear.com/blogimages/ShootingKitty1.jpg

I thought about painting my black Bobcat's muzzle orange, like some toys, to throw the bad guy off while I aimed better......... :roll:
