The stock was actually black before so I'm looking at something different. I have a M70 in another HS stock which is grey w/black. The tough thing is not ever seeing most of these colors in person. I'm leaning towards grey w/black, spruce w/black web, or tan w/black. I've never seen spruce up close so I'm leary of it.

Not the best pic, but maybe it'll come through well enough to give you the idea. This is one I did myself in a light tan with both black and white webbing spray, then overcoated with amatte clear coat. I really like how it turned out.

Very nice riflespa and cj. Itlooks likeblack w/grey and spruce w/black have been most noted in this thread. I want something different and black w/grey is extremely common. Spruce w/ black is very nice but it's also a standard color with HS.HS doesn'tofferit but theyaregoing to do a black w/spruce webbing for me. Hopefully the paint job comes out very nice, thanks again guys for all the input.

I think this is better, it shows the webbing a little better than the first picture.
