I was at a party and the kid has an AT2K and I ended up taking it home because he didn't want it. I did a simple barrel replacement using a crayola barrel. It is amazing, but it doesn't look amazing because it is green. *I HATE GREEN*-except on camo- Anyway I want to put a black shoulder stock then paint the gun itself black. Can somebody give me ideas?

1. No images in sigs. EVER.
2. Don't paint it all black. Either leave some of it green or paint the barrel (or more parts, as you see fit) bright orange. It isn't our fault if your nerf gun gets you in trouble with the police.
For painting it, use Krylon fusion. It is made specifically for plastics. When painting it, paint each half of the case separately. I mean actually take it apart and paint each half while it is disassembled. Try not to paint any moving parts (i.e: Pump, pump handle, trigger).
3. Do you want the stock for looks or for actually usability? Do you want the final product to look like and M16/M4 or some other real firearm? Or do you want it to have actual use in a nerf war?

I recommend mounting a PVC/CPVC coupler on the back of the gun, then cutting pipe and affixing fittings as you see so until it looks and performs how you want it to. Or, do what I had planned to do on my AT2K and use a retractable umbrella as a stock. See it here
