| This is something that I have wanted to do for a long time now and have been researching on the internet. I have seen some great examples out there, but I think that my gun is right up there with them thanks to the master painting skills of my best pal. HONESTLY, tell me what you think... I tried to take this one from farther away so you could see if it worked.... Perhaps I will take some pics when it gets greener outside Please lets me know what you think. | |

| Honestly, this has to be the worst woodland paint job ever. It looks like you did it with a pack of melted crayons. Hope it works for you. | |

| Actually.... $25 in Krylon paint and a very talented friend Thanks a lot fox... I was very nervous, but now I am CONSIDERING a slightly tighter pattern for my X36C.... I don't know if I want to paint that or not yet. I think I might just ghillie it up to fit the spotter role better. Hey, if anybody has any experience in painting AEG's let me know. The above is a Tokyo Marui springer... I think that's the first time "springer" and "tokyo marui" have been used in the same sentence lol
Thanks for the honest opinion.

| Honestly its horrible... just kidding. That is a really good paintjob. I am impressed at how well it matches the woodland BDU you have behind it. Should be a little more stealthy in the woods. I give it a 9.8 out of 10!!! | |

| thanks man, we really were hoping for some good feedback. I think this will force us to write a guide. This was our first time so expect the next one we do to be that much better. We are thinking about doing a tighter pattern for the next one, we'll use the same stencils, just more of them in different colors. Also we are going to put lighter coats on a couple of them to blend the colors together a little better and simulate shadows in the pattern.
Again thanks for your opinions. | |

| It is awsome. The only draw back is that the shells cost ~$10 a shell. Since UTG decided to try to make a crappy version of it (lol I am opinionated against UTG a bit) you can get some pretty good shells for a lot cheeper (6 for $15). I was reading reviews on them the others day and a lot of the reviews where from people who had TM shotguns and just wanted cheeper shells lololol. Poor UTG. | |

| Roamer, why dont you like UTG? The Admin's Shadow Ops seems to be pretty nice. I have actually heard that the new Shotguns are supposed to be really good for the money. They dont make a SPAS version though, just Benelli M3's so far. Here is a pretty good review of it that I found on youtube.com: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qtb63LH_pf4If they could only figure out a way to make it sound really loud when firing... then I would consider a shotty. This is the closest I have come to buying one so far: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JUkm6kvWf5YNo hop up kinda makes it a little useless, especially since it shoots at about 400fps with 8mm BB's!!!! That would hurt like crap at close range. | |

| I don't like UTG's b/c it was my first gun. Granted it was a springer... if your gonna make something and put your name behind it, it should be a good product. Well long story short it was great, so I recomendied it to a buddy of mine. He bought the same thing.... They both broke in the same exact place. Just not a very good design. Perhaps I am wrong in my dislike for UTG's (this exculdes ADMIN's L96 might I add) but I am not so sure I will change my opinion of them anytime soon. BUT, I will get there shells b/c the do not cost $10 a shell like the TMs do. THANKS UTG lol | |

BUT, I will get there shells b/c the do not cost $10 a shell like the TMs do. THANKS UTG lol Your gun was pre-UTG's attempt to make quality guns though. They've come out with a few good ones But you have to look at how much you paid for your gun. Probably $30? lol. What would you expect? I paid $130 for my UTG and of course, as expected, much better results! Besides, I've seen a couple TMs and CAs that are simply awful in design (internally and externally). But that doesn't mean I'm against the companies. I do have to say though that I prefer you a lot more as a spotter with the G36C and SPAS 12 than with that spring UTG lol Hey. Speaking of the L96, how about a custom paint job free of charge? Love the look of the shotgun! It'll blend in perfectly slung over your shoulder as a secondary! | |

| Yeah, I catch a lot of crap on here b/c I put a lot of emphasis on a small part of what I say. That probably doesn't make since so let me clarify that through example. In my comment against UTG, I explained that it was probably a faulty opinion and that I admired your L96: - Roamer wrote:

It is kind of a first impression thing for me, you never get a second chance at a first impression. Oh and it was $65!!!!! lol which is a good bit of money for a springer. I can't believe I spent that much on a springer | |

| Well thank you guys. Roamer and I put a lot of work into his SPAS 12, but hard work pays off. The colors are all krylon camo spray paint from walmart and a can of matte clear coat. The pattern design is freehand from patterns traced off of my multicam. PM me if you would like more details, price, etc... | |
