Thanks for the compliments guys!!!

It started out as a basic tan IBH from Huang that has had a FEW hours of work put into it. The paint job was quite easy actually. I gave it a solid coat of OD and let dry for 15-20 minutes. Once it was dry to the touch I used some steel wool, a wire brush, and various grits of sandpaper to get this finish. The surface is somewhat like a orange peel so really all I did is hit the paint off the peaks. Then to finish it off I went back and gave it a very light dusting of OD and Brown.

Upgrades include:

-Oregon Aero helmet pad kit
-Oregon Aero chin strap (will probably replace with a ops core chin strap)
-Notoros Rhino Arm with homemade adaptor plate to fit the Wilcox Mount
-Homemade low profile led light with battery pack (light attached to right side)
-ACR MS-2000 Strobe
-A SHITE load of Velcro….lol
