It's a dip; no way I can afford the price of that guy on Sniper's hide who paints skulls with DuraCoat (same stuff they painted your urban camo with). Besides, if I were going to use paint I'd do it myself. I have a pretty large store of DuraCoat and paint my firearms, stocks and metal, all the time. I'm a half-azzed decent artist and would have tried painting my stock, but I need to be shooting not painting.
That is a Near Alpha 1 mount. It's a solid bottom, then has 3 caps. It looks like 3 rings, but it's really a uni-mount. Richard Near's gear could double as art. That's a Near 30 MOA rail my mount is bolted to.
