I finally received my FN PS90 back from "Dave" at Nostalgia Works here in Md. I decided on keeping it OD Green and give it a Carbon Fiber look. Dave all so incorporated the Black Tactical American Flag in the stock. Here are a couple of pictures during the stages.

After Hydro dipping. I kind of like the flat look. I decided to clear coat it with a semi gloss.



Now I'm waiting on my Form 1 to SBR it next.

Hey man, that looks freakin sweet!

I don't mean to nit-pick, and it does look awesome, but isn't that flag backwards?

Thanks Hollywood and forum members.

I really don't know. It was a topic of conversation when we decided to put it on the stock. We both agreed the flag should be facing foward, towards it's intended target (engaging) Vs. away from the target (in retreat). Just my option. Any insight would be appreciated.

What I do know, when I hold the PS90 in a left handed shooting stance the flag lies on top of my heart.

The Hydro Dip will not flake off if it's properly done. However the clear coat may be prone to chipping or scratching. I'm not sure what kind of clear coat is used. I was told not shoot the rifle for another two weeks. Dave wanted the clear coat to fully cure. Its a pretty hard clear coat, I accidentally dropped mine PS90 on a hard marble floor and nothing happened.
