i think u can get a non gloss finish that's just as effective but i am not sure

Or you could take a very fine grit sand paper, ie. 400 or 600, and go over it all. It would probably dull it out nicely without clouding it over.

Why paint it camouflage then use a gloss coat? so now you have a camo shiny rifle.

The gloss protects the paint. If you play airsoft seriously then your gun is going to get banged around alot. The type I used was the only thing I had available at the time. My enemies do not have camera flashes on their guns so my gun does not look shiny on the battlefield.

Yeah I guess on the airsoft battlefield its ok as long as there is no sun too, But like us guys on a real battlefield we do play for real and bang are guns around alot. I know of airsoft guns like crazy but what do you do on the battlefield? is it like paintball or Simunition training?

Its alot slower than paintball. I could try and explain but the best way would be to visit a local airsoft field if there is one around and try it out for a day
