Brownells alumahyde in parkerized gray... not so much

Post by etownguy » Sat Jul 08, 2023 1:23 pm

Had a old 10/22 with a faded and peeling silver finish and bought a magpul x22 stock at a decent price so I figured I'd strip and paint the receiver.. I don't hate the color I actually kinda like the color mix but darn it is far off the lid color.

I think I actually like it better than the lid color. I think it looks great!
That's barely even in the same color spectrum...haha

That looks more like the gray-green moly resin
