^^ Don't forget the pointless spam posts.
(I'm pretty sure discussing the merits of the law isn't "bitching"
)

Seeing as they use paint, In stead of buying brand new parts .. Paint remover? When you get your UKARA of course, just a thought how ever

Re: Buying RIF And Having It Painted Two-Tone
Usually the parts such as Stock, Foregrip, Grip and so on are painted. Which is a sketchy area. It defeats the object. You can get a new Stock, Foregrip and Grip from HK for about £20-£30. Even cheaper than that if you search the forum for a second hand deal.
However let's leave that point for another thread. No matter what paint they use it will eventually chip/flake/wear off. But as you'd be looking to change it when your eligible to buy a RIF that wouldn't pose much of an issue. You can take the paint off using fairy power spray. But it will take a fair bit of elbow grease the longer you have the paint on there.

Re: Buying RIF And Having It Painted Two-Tone
Most paint removers would melt any plastics that had been painted or remove the black paint under the two-toning awell, I believe.
It's a good idea though.

Re: Buying RIF And Having It Painted Two-Tone
Paint remover won't harm an anodized finish. But anything painted and it'll take it all right away. Things like this are the difference between Dboys and G&P receivers.
