Great job, Grover. The green is a nice contrast and definitely more distinctive than white.
 
How high are the risers for the scope mounts ?

They are 1/2 inch. They are made by FAACorp out of California. and are Rock Solid but weigh nothing. I also have one that is 7" long that if I had a good quad rail would cover the receiver and attach to the quad rail as well with three attachment points. the rise was perfect in getting me sight alignment with the scope without an attachment to my rear stock. It also allows the scope to sit without being in the way of anything.
 
how did you do this?
interested... highly.....
It really is easy. Get a good quality touch up enamel the kind with the brush built on to the cap....oops dinner just arrived...be back and if you really want to know I will tell you.
and it doesnt involve a super steady hand and a microbrush.
 
You clean the stampings that you want to color in with rubbing alcohol...shake the touch up paint real well, paint in the area trying to just cover what needs to be covered let dry for about 10 minutes and wipe with a paper towel to take off as much excess as possible, where it is thin looking, shake your paint well and apply some more paint to those areas try not to apply too much but get the stampings filled in. Let the paint dry, 2 to 4 hours. take a Mr. Clean Magic Erasure ( a house cleaning product my wife keeps em under the sink) and buff it till the excess is gone, the finish on the rifle is a lot harder than the Mr Clean sponge looking thing. when you are done all the extra paint will be gone but the stampings will be filled in. quick and easy. I promise if I can do it anyone can. I didnt use any paint thinner or fingernail polish remover it smears and softens the paint. Thats how I did it on all the pieces, sometimes you have to do it a couple of times to get everything filled in with enough color to get it to where you want it. If you have any questions just ask!!!!
