Recently aquired an 1968 cz 473, just wondering what my options are for painting parts, pritty much everything has been bead blasted to bare metal, however there is a small amount of rust (easily removed). Im not looking for any thing amazing just want it rustproof and back together again. Working on a pretty tight budget so i dont mind doing it myself if i have to.

Have you checked the pricing of powder coating? It's cheaper than you might think, especially if you're not in a hurry - they can often tack it on the end of another job.

I'd be real tempted to just get a couple of rattle can clear coats to throw on the bare, partially rusted metal. I love that look. for the frame, i'd powder coat. I think i read somewhere it's about £60 to get a frame done in black. Sometimes you may be able to get it done cheaper if you're willing to go with whatever colour they're doing on that day.
