I don't do much hunting anymore, but I used to do a lot of it. Back then I had a few guns that were spray painted woodland colors in random blotches. The idea of it was both to camouflage the guns and to give them a protective finish, but not to make them look good. Here in the Pacific Northwest it rains most of the time during hunting seasons, so these were guns that were going to be getting wet and getting banged around. I wouldn't do that to a Daystate, but I might do it to something like a Cometa or an Air Venturi. It looked really ugly, but it was really practical. Any time the finish got too scratched up I'd just give it a couple more squirts of paint.
