Army to OK coloring of weapons.

The Army has given the go ahead to paint guns to blend in better(Army Times). Add this to the decision to adopt Multicam for Afghanistan, and it seems like there's at least some people high up in the chain with a few ounces of common sense.

"It sticks out, and we need to give them that ability,” Tamilio said. “We should issue out in the next couple of months an advisory message ... to say, ‘It’s OK to spray paint your weapons, but here is how to do it."

It will be interesting to see what methods and paints are OKed by the powers that be.

ETA: Steve brings up the point that it'll help hide the snipers in plain sight as well, always a good thing.
