Or one of those clown pattern minnowbaits that I use for night fishing walleyes in the tailrace. No matter what you it reminds you of....it's ugly. I prefer the fl green better myself. More importantly, what are the calibers? I have a can a spray paint, figure I could make either of them a little more palatable. Might as well get a cartridge/caliber I like, then fix the aesthetics. If I lived in Alaska, I would probably want some colorful rifles also. The lack of real daylight would suck. I imagine this is the time of year when people start going a little cabin feverish.

Mission accomplished As for me, I could care less what color you paint your rifles. All good entertainment IMO. What are the calibers? That is where the inner beauty lies.
