Nice! Did you do the stippling on the Glock yourself as well?

The frame of the glock was done by Boresight Solutions.

That XCR looks great! I assume you all are in Utah, if so that is great.

you know....after analyzing the glock, I'm not so sure I like it, the digital isn't busy enough and I don't know if I like the colors together..... oh well.... I'll do lots of different colors and take more pics

I'm in Oregon and thinking about trying to have my XCR done in FDE Cerakote. Does NIC actually do coating or just sell the supplies? If they don't, does anybody know the closest place to Portland that does?

NIC manufactures the ceramic coating and certifies, "trains" companies to apply it, then they outsource work to them. You can call NIC and find the closest certified applicator in your area. FDE's an awesome color to do a rifle in.... one of my favorites. What I thought weird though...is in all these pics of the new remington acr, the lower and stock are done in FDE and the upper and barrel are done in coyote tan.... weird color combo, but it has kinda grown on me???

I know what you mean. I thought the color combo on the Remington ACR was weird as hell when I first saw it, but every time I see it, it looks just a little better.
I entered AAC's raffle to win one of 5 ACRs. I think I have a pretty good chance of winning, back in August when I registered, the ticket serial numbers where only in the 543,000s.

Dang, I guess I will have to settle for the KAC SR-15.
In all seriousness, it should be a good event and if any XCR peeps are going let me know. I will have my XCR along with some other goodies.

AZ I think I mentioned before that I worked with the guy who won a/the KAC SR-15 and QD suppressor last year. For some reason, he turned down the suppressor. I know, I don't get it either.

Even though it was a piece o shit KAC QD, it was still a FREE KAC QD. (well, +$200 tax stamp, but that would've been totally worth it.)

It is the pervading law of all things organic and inorganic,
Of all things physical and metaphysical,
Of all things human and all things super-human,
Of all true manifestations of the head,
Of the heart, of the soul,
That the life is recognizable in its expression,
That form ever follows function. This is the law. The desert isn't all one color. The two different colors further distort the rifle's outline. I'm looking forward to you guys setting up shop. I plan on having a few things Cerakoted. Do let us know when you're accepting orders! -Ed |

We established an LLC yesterday and will have the business license finalized later this week. The FFL will go out right after that, so we're looking 2 months for the FFL is what I've been told. If your in a big hurry though, let me know. I'll call atf and see if I can do a few not under the business just for a couple friends for no profit, just paint? I have to look into the legality of that though? I don't want to mess with the ATF...understandably

Found out from the fire marshall a month ago that we need a commercial spray booth or a hood system. A commercial spray booth looks to run anywhere from $3-4000. We are trying to build up the money, but it is slow. My guess is we'll be up mid next year. Sorry for the delays. We're both poor college students. That kind of money will take some time. Its a little depressing when I have people call too, I have to repeat the bad news.

For what it is worth, my neighbor went to a Cerakote class there too (about the same time), it will cost him almost $20,000 for the permits and booth to do it here in Kali.

I've been playing around with different templates for lizard skin type camo's. For some reason I like that look a lot better than anything else? I'll post some pics in a day or so.

http://nicindustries.com/handgun_gallery.php?a=view&id=894Good news, I am getting a hefty tax return back and we have enough to get a spray booth. We are submitting FFL paperwork in the next couple weeks so just a couple more months. I am doing my xcr and glock in the desert three color camo above. Final product coming soon, one more color to go when the wind dies down. I have a price sheet that is almost completed for those of you interested in having things refinished. The photos don't really do this justice, these three are my favorite color combo for desert camo. I'll take some better ones when I get all done.
