I hope you guys like this one better than the first Star I did. Anyway I powder coated this with "olive gray" that didnt come out like the color chip which was greener. You get what you get. I got a pistol lanyard for it because I like that idea.
Of course you probably dont.

Re: Yugo Tokarev refinish
I like! Was that one of PSA'S? I saw them on sale and was considering it
Re: Yugo Tokarev refinish
It looks good. Almost too good for a Commblock firearm.
Out of curiosity how much did the refinish set you back?

Re: Yugo Tokarev refinish
just a harbor freight electro static spray gun @ 60 bucks and a toaster oven. Which I already use on cast bullets.
Took it shooting today and I'm happy with it, except for the gritty magazines.
I'm liking candy apple red for the other. The gray doesnt get hot in the sun out here like black does.

Re: Yugo Tokarev refinish
Red with black grips would look nice. I would think red with white grips would look nice but I bet it would be a display piece only because white would pick up dirt.
Just some thoughts.

I like it. If you want a challenge for gun #2 what about something in Der Still style.

That's it, I think. It was some kind of Sci-Fi.
Also: That site is real kick ass

Granted, it doesn't use primary colors but it does emphasize the straight line and the tight rigid angles of the form. I suppose maybe Neuvo Der Stijl would be more correct.

Re: Yugo Tokarev refinish
No primary colors and all of the angles are too obtuse or too acute. None of them are right.The Twizzler wrote: ↑Mon Jun 22, 2020 10:46 pmyossarian wrote: ↑Fri Jun 19, 2020 11:55 pmHow is that Der Stijl?The Twizzler wrote: ↑Fri Jun 19, 2020 7:19 pmI like it.
