Here are a couple of pics of handguards painted with Norrells OD Green (Mil-spec). Baked at 300 for 60 minutes, no problems.

Excellent color match. For those who are trying to match a single original handguard (or the look of worn roiginal handguards), you might pirme it with a brown (something really druable, probably a Krylon Fusion brown that will weld to the plastic) and then spray on the green without baking. Take some steel wool and rub at the wear points, and then bake. I bet that would get the worn look with the brown fiberglass underneath pretty good. |
I don't have anything right here. I looked at an original 601 a few weeks back with the intent on purchasing it. Unfortunately it sold within a few minutes of the listing. It was only 10 miles from home and the seller allowed me to look at it. That is when I noticed it was a very close match to mil spec OD. |
LOL, and new ones at that!  She went out to pick up a few things on Saturday so I told her to pick up some new ones. You should have seen her eye's when I brought in the HG's to bake them in the oven. |
