I need to touch up The M1 Rifle on the GI figure from Christmas set XM010-02. Was wondering what paint color's for the gun stock and metal parts would closely match it?

I have a few damaged figures too but I'm not sure I would be able to fix it... I would also be afraid to be disappointed by the result and I suppose it is, as you said, very difficult to find the exact same colors as K&C uses.
It would be easier if they could sell some samples of their paints and even brushes... it would allow us to do a better work and it would be a new service from our favourite brand...

Sometimes when repairing damaged paint on a figure it is simpler to repaint the damaged part in a color that is available or close to it rather than trying to match the existing color by mixing up a batch for a small area. Repainting a whole rifle stock gives both a uniform color and a smooth application IMO.
