It seems I'm finally going to finish my PR! :cheers
With as soon as I receive the Alu Shrouds from the HCG donor to replace the resin/aluminum ones (Matsuos) that are on it now the Ill be ready to go.
I'm using an aluminum (SD?) Thompson with real bolt, real deact 870, Matsuo stock and 10 hole vent, real spas12 cage, etc. I wanted to build it as a brand new PR, not all weathered, at least at first.
So whats the best way to go about painting this? The shroud is already painted of course but what about the rest?
Whats the correct color scheme? Is there a color scheme that looks even better than the original maybe? Is the SPAS cage supposed to be flat black? semi gloss? the parkerized color it is now? If it is supposed to be painted whats the absolute best way to do it? Powder-coat? Spray paint? And the Thompson? Anodized maybe? what color? The stock and vent I'm assuming are supposed to be either flat black or semi gloss? what about the barrel and all the other parts?
Any insights, ideas and opinions are welcome. I want to get this done right!
