Got my Pardner painted up!

Hey guys. I finally got my shotgun painted up. Pretty simple paint scheme. Gotta do some touch up work around the grip areas and the picture.

Is it for an artic training exercise?

No, I just hunt in the snow and all that cold stuff, so I wanted a gun to match it....Didn't wanna pay $250 for a paint job. Spent $20 on paint and primer

Creative and practical...Well done!

Not bad. Dig the stencil on the stock.

Thanks guys. I didn't paint the bead since I took it off. I have a fiber optic sight tube on it

I agree, but I don't hunt in snow. Different strokes for different folks.

Fade, while it did look okay black, black isn't really an uncommon gun color. Sure I could have gone with a normal camo scene or something along that line, but I wanted a gun that doesn't blend in with all the others in the world

I like it. Original and functional.

Unconventional, sure. Silly, heck no....
