closer look for a POSITIVE ID..... seems John A was right all along.....

All jokes aside, you did good on the prep work and paint.

Cool man...but the hell with what it looks like on the outside, is the seal dried out or is it in nice soft condition? If the seal under the top cover is NOT dried out....ya did good. And with some desent packs your ammo will last forever!!!

Yeah the seal is perfect and still waterproof. Just wanted to clean it up a bit and then I'll probably put a few stickers on it for looks.....

You know I will. They'll be coming soon.
I work on it when I get time and it gives the paint time to dry as well.

Times 'a Tickin....

 

[stigmata]

OK so the wait is finally over......

 

[old mossy]

love the decal!

 

[stigmata]

Set 2 of refinished pics....

I tried to save as much of the stenciling as I could to keep that original look but it was a bit difficult as most was spray painted over and no matter how careful u are its still a delicate process. But I did learn tips for my next one....

 

[old mossy]

NICE!!!!
