I finally worked out the time, and got the camo done on my Bushmaster. I guess I am not too slow, considering I have had the durned thing about 9 months. I used Bowflage, 5 different colors, and like the effect pretty well. Thought I'd give you yahoos a looksee. Bowflage is hard to find these days, but there is still some available at some of the wholesale suppliers.

You did a nice job on selecting your colors. It will be able to be used about any time of the year.

Thanks to all for the compliments. Jim, I used the stencils that Bowflage sends with the kits and added some leaves out of the yard to give a different effect from the fern pattern they give you. I am going to do my Browning Abolt 243 next when I get time. I sold the Bushnelll Scopechief shown on it in earlier pictures and purchased one of the Burris 6.5X x 20X x 50mm Fullfield with the Military Dot Ballistic plex reticle, and I really like it a lot. I have a sunshade ordered for it and will do the camo when it comes in. The camo job on the 243 has held up well for over 8 years of hard hunting, so I know that Bowflage is a superior product and easy to use.
That turned out sweet Al, great job, way better than my home sprayed guns !!
That looks really good, Al. I don't have the nads to paint a gun on my own.
Hey Killer Caller: It does not take nads, as you call them. If you can get some removable Bowflage, just do a test pattern on a board until you get the hang of it, and then go for it. You can't really mess up. If you want, you can take the clear remover and take it off and start over. They do not make the product anymore, but there is still some available at some of the wholesale outlets. The worst you can do is camo it so good that you lose it in the woods. :roflmao: :roflmao: One thing to remember is to clean your stock and all metal with denatured alcohol and let it dry before spraying the Bowflage on.
