This guy can usually find stuff too if he doesn't already have it. He has some Duster stuff.

Still no luck on the flash supressor, but here are some pics of how it is comming along. The work was/is being done by students. The whole thing was needle scaled and sanded. Primed with a poly urathane and is being shot with a waterbased paint by Cardinal. Right now, just the nooks and crannies are being shot, then a full coat will be applied, sanded and re shot...I think. Craig is the paint guru, I just turn wrenches Still need a supressor. I have contacted the above mentioned places with no luck.

Open air painting in Kalifornia; isn't that a capital offense?

Water based paint! Inspectors say that is OK

I hope not. If they deem it hazardous and you might have breathed it in, what are they gonna do with you afterwards, since it surely wouldn't be right to bury you or to burn you.

Try these guys too. They have M-41 parts and may have some 42 hiders laying around somewhere.
