For any new painters on here.. Depending on what effect you want. You have some final steps after the paint goes on. 

A nice clean painted work of art OR a painted working tool that will show its wear and make you feel like a dirty operator. 

Art 

First give it a rub over with some very fine wirewool or wetdry paper ( Go super lite on this ). This will flatten the paint and make it look lovely.
Then a matte or satin clear coat ( obviously the satin will be more shiny than matte ).

Take some photos and know you are an artist.

Dirty operator

Definitely the dirty operator look!..... I may have to resort to a stick on joke shop beard however ?

Yeah I don't think I wanna bother with any clear coat. I want it to chip. tempted to even use some paint stripper on a sponge to smudge some of it.

Yes! ? That's exactly what I have in mind, as I can replace the muzzle brake with a silencer/tracer unit if needed ?

Problem is I don't know a lot about changing barrels in airsoft, so I'm not sure what length I should go for and if I need to replace the inner barrel as well or something ?

 
? I'm still tinkering with this and other bits but there's fu*k all else to do in lockdown.

Runs absolutely fine, it's the Prowin kit and it comes with 3 long mags. The standard TM Glock mags run it it also but don't lock back on empty (at the moment)

Alternatively, I got this one from Amazon and it's *really* good: https://smile.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07K1HWZ2R/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Did a fair amount of research because I heard of tools breaking, but that one has survived for a year of intense usage every time I work on my M4A1.

I've had my layalx wrench for 10 yrs (it's actually a good piece of steel to be fair)..... it works on all the Marui Next Gen and their GBBR guns too except for the 417 as that has a bigger buffer tube....but yours looks more versatile (good find)... :)
