A different sort of camo

Post by MrBowcat »

Morning all.

My youngest daughter has been shooting with me for around a year now, since she turned 14.

At our last club shoot she did really well with one of my rifles (CZ452 .22LR) placing 3rd in the competition against seasoned shooters. I decided to designate it as her rifle, and asked her if she would like me to repaint it. It previously looked like this:

Being quite a girly girl she asked for pink, so I decided to try my hand at a Krptek camo pattern. This is what it came out like:

It will probably raise some eyebrows on the range, but she is really happy with it which is all that matters. :)

At least you won't confuse it with your rifle
Nice job on something maybe not your style but making someone else important happy
