Curious if anyone had put thought into the best colors for our region to paint a rifle, specifically Western WA. Would love to see your rattle can jobs!

I rattle canned a fiberglass M14 stock a few years ago, I used Krylon green, black and gray as I recall with cedar branch for pattern.
I don't know how PNW it is, but i liked it.
