I used my Tippmann for the first time last shoot as a loaner and wanted to dress it up a bit.
I made sure to order the Tippmann Elite (with the 12" hand guards) but this would probably work with any hand guard.
Adding a little color from spray paint (in close to Appleseed Red) really dresses it up!
Rust-Oleom, 2X Ultra Cover, 2 coats three minutes apart, Apple Red-Gloss, 24 hour Complete Cure Time.

My first post for a new topic so I hope the photos are posted correctly!

Well, almost got it right. One photo is upside down. No idea why. It was right side up when I posted it. LOL

lol - Apple Phone? Newer Android phone?

Like so much else these days computers/phones decide what is best for you regardless of what you may want to do. Annoying as heck.

Oh and the red accents do look cool.

That really looks sharp.  Great job and thanks for sharing!

As for pictures appearing upside down, sideways or inside out - I don't know what to tell you except that you're not alone.  I also have an Android - sometimes they post fine, sometimes they don't, and I can never figure out a rhyme or reason.
