ok so im painting my gun, and was wonderin if its possible to paint the handle of the a-5. ive never really seen anyone who has painted there handel, so i was wonderin if you could. If you can paint the handels is all you have to do sand off the original paint. Then, just paint it with the same paint you used for the rest of the gun. if you can help me that would be great.

Im not really sure if that would work,even thought its only plastic, even if you do get the paint on there I think that it would wear off from your hand always touching it and moving

Yeah, if you did want to have a painted grip though, you could pick up a J&J 45 grip frame.  That's made out of metal and could easily be painted to match your gun.  You could also get some sticky grips then too.  the grip frame is expensive though .

Once I get basically maxed out on upgrades I'll probably get one and get a new paintjob and make it look nice.

You could paint the handle (correct spelling) but it wouldn't work too well. My fionce painted her gun camo, but she left the handle alone because it was black and would rub off.
