A SAW as EDC, now this man is an icon! 👏🏽👏🏽🇺🇸
I’m so stiff over his Arms rail on that sexy ol bushmaster DMR.
Literally my first thought as well
Keeping the dream alive…
Like a SAW gunner, almost like that's a thing
That got him another follower ... 🇺🇸💪
1. Tape up what you don't want painted.
2. Spray paint it brown, tan, or green.
3. Optional spray paint stripes and patterns of the same colors.
4. Remove tape and enjoy shooting.
dont forget to incorporate sprigs & branches. Thats the majic...
Or if you just want to do rattle can use a laundry bag’s netting. This is the way.
Someone should mention light or dark colors 1st. I can't remember but I know it matters in the cerekote world. Pretty sure it's lighter colors 1st.
Wait… you guys are shooting these?!
@@zexnynex777From my experience finishing with lighter colors always looks the best & the most realistic, but always remember that you can always add more paint or colors.
Some videos: "Be sure to carefully degrease with acetone to remove every bit of imperfection."
This video: "Put that sumbitch right in the dirt!"
Love it.
Hell yea brother
Tbh, degreasing absolutely make the paint stick better, even moreso with primer... but, it's gonna get beat up if you're training with or using it, so... yeah, throw that sumbitch in the dirt.
Shouting out Drew and Josh is awesome of you to do! Glad that some form of true community is being formed.
Travis is a true patriot and a model American. Love to see him promoting "civilians" having knowledge and being capable. Unlike some former army/ UFC and coffee sellers who claim patriotism but then say We The People shouldn't have certain gear and weapons. Travis you are a fucking legend. Embodiment of a Marine. Always Faithful to the constitution.
Seconded. Travis is a gigachad and model patriot.
are you blowing him too fanboi?
Coffee sellers. Truth. Nice. 👍
The constitution was drafted 237 years ago…got to move with the times.
Tim Kennedy I think.
I’ve been meaning to do this to one of mine. I think it’s impressive that you gave love to the Dirty Civilian guys. That’s just class sir. Good stuff!
I've painted a lot of rifles, you did a good job and gave good instruction. I really liked the split screen towards the end that showed you in street cloths w/ the black rifle vs. camo'd and geared up. Thanks for all your work man!
A great practical application of the camo work, both the painting and the clothing. I also appreciated the heads up on the clothing company. No one wants to walk around like a mall commando, but being able to blend in lets a person chose his tactics in case of an "unplanned situation". And, as Travis pointed out, his choice of camo was driven by the environment, which for most of us includes buildings, streets, etc. Still looking for more "grey man" clothing options. Suggestions are always welcome.
Nice and noble for you to bring the guys from Dirty Civilian channel in the conversation. That’s why so many people are admiring you! Thank you!
It's about time, sir. And very cool shouting out Dirty civilian. They have been putting in work to bring good knowledge and information for the un/or maybe ill-informed. Hopefully, we will be stronger. Together, we learn. Divided fail.
I am a fan of Dirty Civilian as well, this guntoober world is growing in great content and characters.
Absolutely loved the side by side comparison!!
My rifles are already painted but I love “how to paint your rifle” videos lol. It’s borderline therapeutic for some reason
I love the clip that is a side-by-side with you in camo and you in a black shirt and blue jeans. If you stare at the center is is insane the difference in being ready and being caught off guard can be. Your peripherals just get immediately drawn to all that black.
Looking forward to the series. I appreciate your time and sharing your expertise.
Great video, short and to the point! Love it.
Thanks Travis, love the end result there. I definitely agree the multicam arid is awesome in our AZ environment.
Looking forward to those tactics videos. A series on that would be awesome! Thanks for this one in the mean time🇺🇸
This is cool! Now I can paint my EDC M-60. Thanks for tips! 😊
Did you not know how to paint a rifle before?
@@patrickwooton966 I had no idea. I’m a shooter not an artist
@@RubiconVfair point
Really? Its common sense.@@RubiconV
@@patrickwooton966that was sarcasm
Straight to the point as always ! Great video and reasoning behind the why.
I love the epic background music for a rifle painting video, the editor had some fun with this one
Love the @dirty-civilian Shoutout. Drew, Josh and crew are putting out amazing content
Thank you. I’ll stand beside you Mr. Haley. Godspeed.
Outfreakingstanding!! I can’t wait to see the next one.
This is the information we need. Hopefully youll keep putting it out. America needs it now
Side note for lpvos or other scopes you should tape over numbers on dials, or even something like the illumination numbers
Many thanks for doing this. Love these videos.
Loving the EDC-SAW
One of the best I’ve seen!
My edc gun: an assortment of 9mm and 10mm pistols
Travis' edc: A FUCKIN SAW 😆
We are not the same.
Anyway great video, I did exactly this on my bugout rifles, with indigenous veg patterns, breaking up the outline of the rifle and optic.
Travis, thank you for sharing this information! You are a Professional, brother! Keep up the training, information and products 👊
i've seen a lot of how to paint your rifle video's but this is awsome just get right to it
Thank you Travis appreciate your knowledge and skill on this .
Great video! Some folks really make it harder than it has to be. It's a simple process
You know you've made it when you get a shout out from daddy Haley
Awesome video and cheers to the DC boys.
that side by side comparison of breaking up the outline was so good.
More of this content 👏🏼 no bs, proper knowledge
I know this will help people out in the future 👊🏻🇺🇸 keep up the good work
Did mine up as a tiger stripe. Turned out really well, and works pretty decently as a camo.
Excellent info! Thanks
This is definitely more detailed than my go-to method of tan or brown base layer, then, using an old mesh laundry bag, I spray 'hex' pattern branches in OD, tan/brown (which ever was not the base). Does a very decent job for a forest floor with dead leaves and green brush area.
Great Video. Greetings from an Army veteran living in Mesa, Arizona. Thanks.
well made video and enjoyed observing some of your field craft in use. subscribed hope to see some more
while not at all necessary i use a matte clear coat afterwards for some reason it counteracts the tackiness almost immediately.
Great content Travis! Thank you sir.

Travis it’s good to see you making vids bud!
Great Video Travis!
Doesn’t matter how many videos come out on rattling a rifle…. Im apparently gonna watch them all lol
FINALLY, a simple no bullshit video on something way too often overthought!
I do this same process but use brownells allumahide or whatever it’s called. Holds a really long time actually. Doesn’t wear of as easy 👍🏼
Loving the Cali combat hoodie
The drug rug from ASNL is a super cozy and capable piece of kit. Can't reccomend them enough!
Im going to try this one day on my less expensive rifle to see how it turns out , i was surprised that it doesnt have to be taken too serious in detail etc, like you said youre dirty with it, bc in some things i do im a little OCD and that sometimes can be a good thing but sometimes not when you need to be fast or make quick decisions, i appreciate your time and giving credit to others, being humble when youre a badass is a plus with us civies, just subscribed and watched your why your rifle isnt zeroed video, which is what im trying to get better at, i bought a lazer sight in tool i havnt used yet on a couple different firearms, one isnt exactly a long range weapon so i have it somewhat zeroed on maybe 50 yards or so , honestly im not very good at long range, id love to be able to get out to the range more but work, 4 children being a single father , divorced etc, not to mention the other factors like $ and so on, but hey maybe being that my name is also Travis i can somehow get a bit of that badassery rubbed off on me, if only i could have a damn M249 SAW as an edc, id be smiling all day long
You GOTTA make a video about the tactics you mentioned. That’s info civilians should know!!
For the Magpul bipod, I tied a single round of 220 cord (with a square knot at the back of the legs) on the inner shaft at the pivot to take up that space and get rid of that wobble.
Thanks Mr. Haley.
Gotta Love The SAW,
It Just ROCK'S...
Great video! Earned a sub!
Great job, thank you.
Shit I buy 5,000 $ AR /AK first thing I do is fuck up that great black paint job by putting my own touches on it the it gets properly painted then accessories
Cool to see the dirty civilian shout out from a legend
Great stuff.
Could you do a video on using hunting camos for "military" application? I feel like Realtree Edge, among others, is highly underrated in "Grey man" and "Minuteman" applications.
This is Arms Allowed, absolutely wonderful genuine and to the point ,very specific . Couse it’s America die free out …
One thing I love that another channel said (it was either tactical rifleman or mike glover) is that they just kept some bottles of acrylic craft paint in their packs and basically finger painted their rifle to match their current environment. Acrylic craft paint doesn't hold up well at all but it doesn't really need to, you can just reapply as needed and if you need to you can scrub it off.
Thank you Travis.
This was a great video. Will follow
That was cool! 😊
10:38 i wear tropic multicam trousers up here in the canadian winter. My kit is simple, all white top and green bottoms to match with evergreens out here
Cool, after this, can we get a "How to select and build a hide site"? One niche I haven't found done well on YT yet
YES.
Not sure why i enjoy watching rifle painting videos so much, but i just do lol.
Thanks Travis.
Thanks for the vid!
Not about to paint anything anytime soon out here in the wilds of suburbia but definitely informative.
You can still get away with breaking up the pattern. Light green and gray with a little brown works well
thanks. good tutorial. inspired me.
Travis Haley going Bob Ross. Didn't know I need this.
When I operated operationally in an operating area, I always carried spray paint cans!!
Bad ass t dog, another awesome video thanks!
Anytime people ask my why im painting expensive equipment i tell them if i was worried about selling it. I wouldnt have bought it to begin with.
That's basically what I did on mine just the other day. But I just kinda misted the other colors on with no "pattern". Looks good to me.
SPLENDID MAESTRO
Liked, subscribed and hit that notification bell.
Edit: I need to up my spray paint game.
I get this video right after I already painted it 🧍♂️
😂
Literally same lol
Paint it again.. more layers the better
It's all common sense. If you have a 3rd grade or higher education you should be fine.
It’s so hard for me to paint my rifle lol. I love how it looks and don’t want to screw it up. I have the same BCM.
Excellent! Thx
did you try tightening the bipod nut on the bottom? its means to swivel if you want or be completely stiff if do not
Nice video. Thank you.
Fantastic video for thinking outside the box. The paint job with your kit provided Incredible concealment. As you change environments, do you strip the previous paint job, or spray paint over it?

Soooo good
Cool cinematic
That side by side video sold it for me
Same. Now I need to get an NF ATACR 1-8 to spray paint...
I'd recommend covering the maxwell or inserting a mag. An extra layer of paint might make it slightly tighter for mags.
Nice, thanks
That side by side shot of regular clothing and gillie next to it really shows why you need to paint your gun and match your environment, the best you could get it
Travis is such a cool dude
A tac camo looks great in Arizona terrain...😊
As a photographer, I can say the eye catches straight lines. It's why scraches in photos stand out. Breaking up the lines in your paint is highly effective.
I use a cardboard paper towel roll to protect my barrel so I don't get any smoke off the paint when it gets hot, most importantly the first ten inches or so.
Keep it simple is sometimes the best solution.
Some important tips for everyone: repaint your rifle anytime you're going into a real world conflict to match the mission area you'll be working in. Don't be afraid to repaint to apply fall colors or spring colors or whatever works best. In addition, keep flat white paint around in storage for winter/snow - the spray paint can will stay good for years. Next, if working outside keep in mind that your paint is just a **base coat** you don't need tons of details. Again if you're doing this in the real world, you want to loop some rubber bands on your gun and attach living natural foliage and other 3D elements to break apart the outline (particularly over the top of your scope and your handguard, the highest points on your rifle when shooting prone.
