What gun would work best

[gus13]

lvl 10 is definitely the way to go.
by the way i like your idea and I'm hoping you post some pics when/if you get it done!

Okay i have finally found all the parts i need for this. I need to get them colored orange and grey. What would work better for this, powder coating or anno. I am not sure how detailed you can get with an annodizing. Any opinions on which would be better for what I want to do? thanks!

powder coating gives it a more thick color, and less metallic than anno, so I think powder coating would work best. good luck, and I can't wait to see the result!

....or he could just go with a matte/dust finish...

Get it done right the first time and go with a quality annodizer

But it woulden't look good for what he is trying to accomplish. Why a dust finish to look like that nentendo controller? they didn't have dust finishes! powdercoating would look best!

its still a paintball gun, get your head out of your *** miguel. If he really wanted it to be looking exactly like it, he prob would have went with plastic. My suggestion was for a longer lasting finish that will look great for years on end, wont "orange peel" or bubble. Why dust? Because bead blasting gives it that feel kind of like how some of nintendos stuff feels like after coming out of the plastic moulds. And with anno, theres a better chance of matching it. Powdercoat, its either match it the first time or you have to strip and redo
