    Stainless Steel or Black Barrel?

    My Denny's 6.8 SP 16.1" barrel came in Bead Blasted Stainless Steel and although I liked it, I just thought black would be better. I asked around on another site and I finally got the confidence to paint it black. Here is the before and after: Which one looks better?

    Thanks Michael. I just used some BBQ colored spray paint from the local store where I live. I wanted something that was not metallic and that is what most of the guys recommended.

    Paulo, Looks great! I like that A1 Vltor, I have one now that I got from Grant.

    The rifle looks more "complete"

    Thank you. I love the Vltor stocks. They are by far my favorite stocks.

    I got lucky. My 2 year old co-operated. He actually fell asleep for a couple of hours while I worked on the barrel..

    Paulo, Tell us about that bipod/grip set up.

    If that 360 swivel up front is a bother, check out the Daniel Defense one, has about a 120 swivel.
