I have had a fiberglass GI M14 stock kicking around for awhile...I had the day off, and after some errands a couple hours to spare.
So figured why not paint the stock? I ran up to Ace hardware, grabbed 3 colors of Krylon "Camouflage" paint and went home.
I gave it a light sanding and cleaned it with Alcohol, and painted it Black. A few stripes of Green, a couple stripes of Cedar branch and "Olive" color...and a few more stripes of black, a couple more Green.... :)
...and i think it turned out pretty good for my 1st try, what do you think?

It really was pretty easy, and if i screwed it up, no biggie....Spray it again. I'm sure i will end up painting it again, just can't leave well enough alone.
Thanks for the kind words.
