Looks good. It’ll be a great “truck gun”.
I’m liking the SBA3 brace.

Thanks. That brace is light years beyond the others in my opinion.

120 rnds through it yesterday without issue. I think it will prove to be a reliable little truck gun.

Very nice.

I like the paint effect.

Thank you. It’s kinda hard to screw up a “distressed” look. Lol

This shows it a little better.

So basically you only want to hear the good comments. Don’t want to hear criticism, don’t post your stuff on the internet.

My iPhone XS Max is better than your android!

Not at all. That post served no purpose. The color is obvious in the pictures. I personally don’t care what anyone thinks of the paint. It’s paint. Especially when the thread is months old. Someone is just looking to stir the pot. Typical on here I suppose

I would expect a “colors aren’t for me” or a “that such or such part has a track record of failures”. Not a “looks like baby shit”. Who cares

I’m generally not a big fan of ‘painted’ guns, but this one does look really good.

THIS is what baby poop looks like

Looks pretty nice to me! Probably better than I could do. :wink:

Taste is a matter of different strokes for different folks. Me personally I like the amount of care you took in painting it.

It is apparent you have been a parent of a BF newborn infant…:laugh:

Yes, I’m a dad. My children were infants once. I became intimately familiar with all sorts of bodily fluids:) Don’t know what “BF” is, though.

The paint job in the photo is called “Baby Poop” by the FalFilers. It’s the paint job used by the Rhodesians to break up the outline of their rifles. The Rhodies asked the terrs how they’d spot the Rhodesian patrols to lay ambushes. They found out their black rifles were easy to spot. That’s when the Rhodies started painting their rifles. They used automotive paint and the colors they chose matched the color of the vegetation native to Rhodesia. The soldiers used whatever they could get their hands on to paint their rifles- paint brushes or even old socks. A lucky few has access to paint sprayers. Each soldier painted his own rifle and no two were alike.

Part of building a Rhodie FAL is painting it with baby poop. One of the FALFilers sells baby poop in the Marketplace, the FalFiles EE.

Baby poop really is a thing.

It appears that I stand corrected. I apologize for my rude reply due to my ignorance.
