How to rattle can your PMAG 40 Gen M3

1. 1. Strip it down

   Take the part off the gun and strip it: pull springs, pins and screws, and take a magazine apart so only the body gets paint (base plate, spring and follower out).

2. 2. Degrease everything

   Wipe every outside surface with acetone or isopropyl alcohol. Paint will not hold over gun oil.

3. 3. Mask what moves

   Tape every surface that meets another part: threads, rail slots that take a mount, pin holes, and the inside and feed lips of a magazine so it still feeds and drops free.

4. 4. Spray the lightest base

   Two light coats of the lightest color, 8 to 12 inches away, 10 minutes apart. Thin coats stop runs.

5. 5. Lay the pattern

   Hold leaves, netting or a stencil sheet on the gun and spray the next darker color. Work light to dark and finish with black if the design uses it.

6. 6. Let it cure

   Handle it after an hour but give it a full day before it goes in a case, and a few days before hard use.
