$2,300 rifle & $20 of Krylon...

Before





After








The AR has been painted for thousands of rounds and many cleanings and is holding up great.

Here is the FAL with a prototype of the Sneaky Bag in ACU I have from www.sneakybags.com for T & E for a comparison of the camo.

Here they are tossed in the grass on the berms at the gun range this morning.
The rifles are always two rifles near the center of the picture...




Here are 3 rifles, my two camo and a 3rd AR with Tan furniture

Looks great, what type of Krylon are you using? I was always concerned about Krylon not being heat resistant, but that does'nt seem to be the case.

I use the Krylon Camouflage Paint made for camo, it is ultra flat (although will begin to lose some of the "flatness" when you rub it enough) and the first time you shoot the rifles you can smell the paint hardening. The AR has probably 4-5000 rounds through it since being painted and cleaned many many times without any problems. It has chipped when bashed against something hard but a quick touch up with a can and you are good to go.

I wouldn't have painted the FAL if I wasn't happy with the AR first.

Let me check first... as it is a prototype or a beta test bag I can't post pics of the inside and much detail... but I used it an the range today and it works very well.

The best thing about it is the way it is laid out inside facilitating the carry and quick reloads of mags.

The pics about show a little of the AR mags, and the pics below I had made the changes necessary for a FAL.

There will not be a Sneaky Bag like this in ACU they will look more mundane and sheeple friendly.

Roger and understand. Please ask the manufacturer if they would mind coming on this forum and starting a thread in the tactical gear section about the bag. I think a lot of members would be interested in learning more about it.

The website has no useful info; Clicking their link just opens another homepage window. Maybe some Jen photos for size reference?

From Magpul.

You just need an AR15 stock adapter, which DSA has.

Exclamation

Super nice paint job! If this does not show why a black/ dark finished gun would stick out in the bush then I don't know what would! That being said, I can't bear to paint any of own but I did help a buddy paint his...
The bag looks really good! Well thought out from intial views. Hopefully the dude can get some info /pricing / photos on his website as there seems to be much ado about the bag and its design.

As to the Sneaky Bag...

I just asked the company if they would like to provide a more information etc and they will be. I will post some more pictures on here and specs and eventually pricing.
