I friggin' love this thing.
A little extra rail, a bit 'o paint, and she's good to go.

nice paint job ...
you just can't just leave a gun unpainted do you ? :icon_razz:
No brother........I cannot. :dispirited:
I did leave it unpainted for a few days, though, (long enough to try it out).

Kid's a good shot so far!
That's an amasing paint job, you should send some pics to Crosman.
If you do facebook you also publish your daugther pic in the shot of the week contest that PyramydAir has, you could win a 50$ gift certificate.
Thanks, Doc!Quote:

About how many hours went into painting everything up like that (I have only ever painted stocks a solid colour)?

Same holey rag for some green spots,
Then a light misting of khaki to blend and soften any sharp edges or spots.
Easy, peasy, lemon-squeezy.
Niiiiiice!(nodding head ):eagerness:
Amazing how a bit of paint/time can transform an already decent looking gun into a "WOW - that's awesome" gun!
Good work,
Todd
Thanks, man!Quote:
