That is killer cool!  How did you get the letters to be white?

Acrylic paint. Brush over to fill the lettering and lightly wipe off with a barely dampened cloth.

Recently was gifted an 8.5" cut off from an LW barrel from an airgun friend to install on the CR600. I can shoot the pistol off the hangy tank, or on 12g carts.

I really like the longer barrel on the 600.  Very nice.

That turned out great! What kind of paint did you use? I have one, that I intend to rebuild and repaint, but I want to use Cerakote. I haven't done the research yet to find out if that type of coating will "stick", but it seems to be a very durable finish, when it does. You did an excellent job on that one!
