Hunting Rifle Paint Job

I have a little T/C Contender that's in a black plastic stock. I just gave it a coat of paint. When it is dry I'll give it the sponge treatment then some matte clear. I'll try to post a before and after picture. The left pic is before, the right is after. Krylon from Walmart. I know I finish a paint job faster than most but Krylon dries fast and I like to apply the sponge colors when it is a little tacky. A couple of coats of clear and it's done. Not crazy about the color of the green but it didn't match the cap very well. It's growing on me though.

DuraCoat sponged on with matte clear DuraCoat over the top. Costs more than Rustolium type spray paint but is way more durable and doesn't get gummy from gun cleaners, sun screen or bug spray etc.
