Here's a gun only a farmer can really appreciate, but even some farmers may wonder why. I got the bug to paint a stock and since I bleed green I figured my first paint job would have to be something John Deere. My sons are more talented than me and my daughter-in-law is very crafty, so it became a family project.
We took one perfectly good Ruger 10/22, broke it down, put a fat barrel and a fancy stock on it. Then I did a mock-up of what I wanted it to look like. My son did most of the painting (I made a few token efforts) and my daughter-in-law made stencils and masks based on my ideas.

It's not perfect, but when we pulled off the tape and put it back together I was really happy with our family project. Now, for the next one ……………..

You should send pics of that to John Deere, Im pretty sure this could become part of new marketing plans. That is awesome!

Nice, I really like the painted flutes.

the painted flutes are very cool.

wow... very nice! Love the fluting and the phrasing on the stock...
-
I like it, how well do you think the paint will hold up on the stock
-
you definatly got to send pics of that to J/D they will dig that for sure, do you have a gun rack in the combine or any of your farm tractors for that bad boy to ride safely in..... awesome job. :tup:

Cool!

Awesome job

We used Duracoat paint on it, which I believe is for gun stocks, so I hope it proves to be very durable.
Thanks for the comments everyone, I felt like an eight year old kid on Christmas morning when I was taking that masking tape off the paint job.

Outstanding custom job only problem I can possibly see is whether the JD insignia was a Copyrighted design. Hopefully JD won't come after you for copyright infringement if it is.

Only if he sells them. They have to show damages, which would be profits made from the sale.
-
That is one sweet looking gun!

Very nice :tup:

I agree with farmin. I worked for the IH dealer that used to be here in town during high school. I was only jealous of one JD item. My younger brother worked for the JD dealer. I hated picking him up after work in the winter. I would have to wait while someone flagged them down. They would be out back of the shop on the sleds bombing around. Why couldn't IH have snowmobiles? :bash:
-
That's a very cool gun. I love the painted flutes
-
Amazing job, it is cool that you let the kids get involved as well.
-
I need that for a tractor gun!
-
Very! Very! Cool!
-
Very cool... :tup:

Probably more trademark than copyright.

That thing is way cool, to bad it's not a deer gun. :chuckle:
-
You almost got the color right........ :tup:
Mmmm..No..it should be yellow :rolleyes:
