The r10 has had an extreme make over Si edition.

[zini 1,939]

Hi lads I decided to give my r10 stock a make over and give it the broken outline look yesterday.

 

I do like the walnut stock on the r10 but wanted to try something new for a change and as my r10 is more of a hunting rifle than a thing of beauty so I decided to camo her up a bit and try and break up her outline.

 

The primer and paint that I used was from B&Q and is called Plasti Kote spray which is £3.48 a can.

 

I gave the stock 2 coats of Plasti Kote primer first and then 2 full coats of colour allowing everything to dry first.

 

The last thing I did was to give it 2 coats of Plasti Kote clear finish.

 

If I ever feel the need to go back to a walnut stock I will buy one from BSA new.

 

I can also go completely black if I want too which would give the rifle the synthetic look which I also like.

 

Hopefully this stock will be a asset in the field when static hunting over decoys for woodys in the future.

Hi 8shot,

 

Thanks for the kind comment buddy.

 

Just go for it pal, you can always keep spraying over it if it messes up and if you wish to go back to wood just get a new stock.
