Thinking of having my rifle coated and I can't decide which color cerakote. I am currently torn between armor black and tungsten. If you have a cerakoted rifle or pistol I would like to see it. There are to many good options!

I plan to have my stock coated in Hunter Safety Orange & then Tiger Stripe it.

I tend to paint anything I hunt with. The pistol was painted because the original finish decided to rust.

Either of those would be a fine choice with the black stock.
It really depends if you want some contrast or not.

Are you having Nathan Chesney do the coating? He coated one for me recently with a bit more hardener for a soft sheen. It turned out great.

A buddy has the armor black and it seems to show a lot more " marks" than the graphite black. It is very flat.

I love that burnt bronze. I'm planning a 6x47L varmint weight rifle with burnt bronze. It's about as pimp as I'll go......with rifles anyway.

Midnight Purple, which i've recently discovered from Charley Santoni of CS Sports, who finished my Pre 64 in 9.3x62, seen here, is no longer available....darn it, because I wanted to use it again for a 6.5x57BR i'm having built.
