Does anyone have experience camo spraying a rifle?

Yeah, id wait till you had money to spare and get a good job done. Getting a crappy job done will waste money you dont have now and cost money in the future when you try to fix your mistake.

Lets just say I'm unsure with the basics of camouflage.

Ah, OK. If it's airsoft, you probably have less to worry about.

I knew a guy once who spray-painted his airsoft Tokyo Marui M14 with a woodland-style camo pattern (no leaves, though). But he separated the entire receiver/barrel assembly from the stock before he did it. The stock was the only thing he painted. I also can't remember what type of primer he used, but I believe that there are airsoft retailers who sell a type that's very good for this exact purpose.

I take extreme offense to that! I know at least 19 other Oregonians!

I think they did that in Shooter. Didn't understand how they did it so precisely just putting leaves on it though.

Since this topic came up again, it reminded me of this video. Skip to about 6:30 to see the final step and results. It's quite impressive.
Part one is here, to see the full process.
