Its not bad, but you do not want it shiney for camo. So skip the varnish -------------

Looks for a non-gloss finishing coat/sealer. Looks decent. ------------- Pumpker'd; (V.) When a pump player runs up and shoots you at point blank range because you thought 20bps made you good. |

Why not just keep it black or smoke or clear, I mean is a cammo hopper going to help you stay that much more out of site?
