WTK: Will KAC "Taupe" a black SR-15 ?
I purchased a black SR-15 and really like the way KAC does their Taupe coating. Anyone know if you can send a gun back to KAC to have them "Taupe" it? Yes, I do know there are other companies
out there that will coat it for me BUT I would like KAC to do it......
Thanks,
I just had an SR25 rebarrelled and refinished by KAC into an M110 Clone. Very Nice Job! Refinishing was charged separately at $250. Based on that, I assume KAC will refinish your SR15. But, KAC won't paint your furniture and be prepared to wait a month or two...they are backed up on Government Contracts. Contact Kevin Boland or June Wetherbee at KAC (kboland@ or jwetherbee@knightarmco.com) for assistance. AWESOME!
assaultdriver,
Pictures please

Nice, what did it run you for the re-barreling?
My M110 Clone is an SR25 with upgraded KAC Internals, M110 Barrel, Harris LR-S Bipod (may need painting), Leupold 4.5-10x40 LRT (Duracoated in Trijicon FDE) in a KAC one-piece mount. The furniture, including the rail panels, are KAC OEM duracoated in Tactical Coyote. I did not opt for the M110 Stock (yet...hmmmm)
The upgrade included inspecting and upgrading the internals (since this was a '90's production rifle), barrel replacement (20" M110 for 24" Heavy Target Barrel), Cerakote in FDE, Test Fire, Zero and Cleaning. Turnaround time was about 8 weeks. It is shooting about 3/4 MOA from the factory. I have yet to get it to the range myself.
I am having trouble uploading pics...only getting those damned Red-X boxes. Any help?
HOOAH!

If you don't mind me asking what did it cost?
Standing by for answer to OP and pics if anyone's done it. Sorry for the hijack.
assaultdriver,
Get a photo share account like Photobucket, and just copy & paste to this thread - or email me the photos and I will post them!
I'll try this again:

After

and Before


You bastard!
That turned out really nice.
Gives a whole new meaning to going "green" with a SR25
assaultdriver,
Very nice!!!

Looks good. So how does it shoot now, compared to before?
Shooting 3/4 MOA groups from the factory. Range report to follow...haven't had the chance to get out with it yet.
