Firearms photography

Hey Rick,

Thanks for your efforts.

As far as lighting goes, the best photos I have ever taken of firearms are in full sunlight in the backyard, yes, not too close, shows off the wood real nice. Background? I like a bright cypress plank and the green St. Aug. grass in the backyard. Sadie the Whippet is always a nice touch also.

Rick, Nice tips!

I just found this site, but I remember you from the old CSP site. You forgot to add the part about colorful afghan backgrounds!

this is a 1943 A3 remington receiver affixed with a redfield original base and original lyman all weather alaskan scope. the bolt is an A4. if ever I find a A4 stock I will have about a 95% A4 shooter. the stock does have the arsenal P by trigger housing, but no cartouche.
How much invested ? round figures about $500 +
Sorry to say I did not do the technical changes.

Can anyone make a recommendation for a reasonably priced camera to take good photos of long guns (M1993s and M1s). My cellphone camera ain't getting it done. Any info appreciated. Dokcop.
