Gunsmithing Team PINK!

[LRI]

Gene Stoney, owner of Bar-Sto Precision asked us to coat his AR for 3 gun competition. Gene likes different stuff, so he gave Kalli and loooooonnnnnngggggg leash on this one.

He was gigglin like a little kid when he saw it. Nothing quite like the visual of a 240lb grown man posing as an 8th grade cheerleader!

He's ready if we ever invade San Francisco!

Some dude carrying a pink AR and wearing a pink man-skirt? I'm not ashamed to admit that would frighten me a little.

AH, very grasshopper playing mind games with the competition.

Re: Team PINK!

That's bad ass, I would love to take that deer hunting just to see the reactions of the other guys I hunt with.

Re: Team PINK!

I have a quick slightly off topic question... how do you get good paint coverage on the inside of something like that hand guard without having problems with the paint running? I have a Ruger MK1 I'm in process of refinishing, but I'm kinda stumped at how to get a good finish inside the action, at least what you would see through the ejection port. I'm just worried about either having it run, or not getting complete coverage. Thanks

Re: Team PINK!

Kalli painted it completely tore down. It's how we do everything on guns like this. Makes for more work as you have to spend a bit more time getting the masking (stencils) to line up properly, but it gives it a very complete appearance when done this way.

Girly has got some skills. She's a bad ass with a paint gun.

Don't paint inside the action.
It often causes problems with the function of the gun.

Re: Team PINK!

Didn't he move to South Dakota from California? That might explain the paint job!

Funny vid. Getting back out of that cart had to suck.

I have much to learn about the finer points of tactical shooting!!!

Congrats on being chosen by NIC, Chad.

Re: Team PINK!

Wait till you see the Moped she's gonna be working on!

She used to steal her brothers all the time as a kid. So I got her one after hot rodding a buddy's. We went from 25mph to almost 60. It's a death trap.

Kalli's will be significantly quicker.

Big bore kit
Delordo carb
Tuned pipe
16:1 head
Tank full of VP Q16
8oz Nitrous kit from Nitrous express (yes, I did say nitrous on a moped)

Re: Team PINK!

Think this through, 60+ on a ped...if she wrecks, you'll have to paint...(grin). Better let the big fella test it first.

 

[LRI]

Re: Team PINK!

Wait till you see her on a pocket bike!

Re: Team PINK!

That stuff is just plain cool as a moose!

Pink is just another color, as far as I'm concerned.

It has the added advantage of being rather uncommon on a shooting line, so anything purloined of mine is gonna stand out right off the bat.

It's my favorite antitheft deterrent. It's also easier to find in the grass, etc. If I need camo, I'll use camo. I don't really need a lot of camo.

People wanna murmer, I got no problem with that. I know who and what I am, and anybody has a problem can kiss my...; well, we don't even really need to go there...

Sounds like my little brother. Always working on his YFZ450 to make it faster/ better.

Re: Team PINK!

I have built quite a few pro street and race cars and a few bikes. All I can say is laughing gas makes everything better. The slower something is to start with, the more fun it is to make it go fast.
