H2 Buffer and Extreme Green Logo

[oneyeopn]

As I told you all I had ordered a "carbine buffer" it was advertised as weighing 3.5 oz's (it actually weighed 4.33) and a NCStar QD 3/4" scope rail. Well after I installed them the other day I boresighted it here at the house off of the side of the neighbors house and got it close enough to go put it on paper. I started at 50 yards wanting to get it close, I was shooting a mixture of Brown Bear, Silver Bear and Tulammo all 55gr FMJ. I took both my old and my new buffer with me to try them out side by side. First I fired 5 rounds of BB with the old buffer then replaced the buffer and fired 5 rounds, I was on the target but was shooting High and to the right. I fired 5 more SB with the old and then 5 with the new. The difference was absolutely amazing how quickly I could get back on target with the heavier buffer. The recoil was noticebly reduced with barrel jump being reduced also. So I left the new one in and started actually sighting the scope. The first target shows me working to get the scope to where I was shooting about 2 mildots high at 50 yards. and then started shooting using the 2nd mildot as my sight reticle. I took the scope off and fired a couple of rounds with my iron sights and then put the scope back on. Fired a few more rounds just to make sure I was close. I had consumed too much coffee and was having a problem holding it still so I took a little break and moved back to a hundred yards, got my breathing under control and then shot using one mildot above center of the scope as my sight. When I left the 50 yard line I set my turrets to zero and when I got to the hundred I didnt touch them. The second target is a smaller target with the rings 1" apart but the red bullseye is easier to see and concentrate on. I was very happy with this. The wind was blowing left to right at 18 to 23 mph and I was resting across the hood of my pickup with a Plastic Caldwell NXT front half. I am still happy. So after I got home I remembered that I had some snap-on touch up paint for my big toolbox and decided to "dress up my Sport". I did both sides for when I put in my Ambi Safety!! Truthfully not a clue why I did it but check this out!!!

You wouldnt think I was over 50 would you? (LMAO)

Hey, I like that color!, looks good! How did you go about the application and removal of excess? (and don't try to tell me you kept it all inside the lines....)

Hey, I like that color!, looks good! How did you go about the application and removal of excess? (and don't try to tell me you kept it all inside the lines....)

first I prepared the areas with rubbing alcohol and a paper towel, shook the touch up paint container (with like the little brush inside. shook well, then used the brush to put just enough to fill the lines (of course there was extra) wiped it off with a paper towel and then after it is almost dry I used one of those Mr. Clean Magic Erasers for stubborn stains, used it dry to just basically erase the excess and get it down to where the lines are full, It actually worked easy and well, it is Snap on tool box touch up paint but a person could use any good enamel and thats it, the M&P15 is not stamped in but everywhere that it is marked by stamping it worked and looks cool IMHO, silver or yellow or red or just about any color would work...good luck

P.S. make sure you dont scrub with the Magic Erasure to hard, I didnt remove or change the finish but I am afraid if a person rubs it too hard they might!
