Thanks ya'll... Still got a bit to go. I finally got delivery of my Duracoat and did some spraying today. "Woodlands Tan" I think is the color I went with. It is a flat finish but I am thinking of giving the parts a quick spray of satin clear to complete the gun with the same overall finish. I will pre assemble it first to see what it looks like.

So while waiting for the paint to dry I got a little itch... pulled out one of my pawn shop aquisitions.... 1972 no serial number, no barrel markings Marlin 989. So I disassembled it to get ready to start another one... going to make this one a back to original restore. The walnut stock is cracked and the gun has been used, alot...
