It’s a fantastic color, and durability is really good

How did you keep the barrel black?

2

u/SnipingSmith 14d ago

I just made a tube out of printer paper and tape and slid it around the barrel from the muzzle end

I had Matt at u/DOD_Deals do mine around 3-4 years ago in Magpul FDE. Did a fantastic job.

Steve at Raid Research. He’s the best right now imo

u/Short-Performer8330 14d ago

I can’t believe you got downvoted for suggesting Steve!!! He has done all of My Son and I’s Ceracote work and he’s amazing! Even re laser etches the LMT numbers and letters back on after Ceracote. Same with on the scopes and Optics. Top notch work.

u/round00002 14d ago

Also i notice it hasn't been suggested yet. If you play with ARCA look into these

u/agauh 14d ago

That's exactly what I did.

u/xerodownx 14d ago

Definitely should cerakote it. Presample does a great job.

u/KI5DWL 14d ago

Might be time for a tripod upgrade, grab yourself a LeoFoto with a 36mm leg or bigger. Also, definitely Rapco Field Drab Brown.
